How to Make Remote Learning Work for All Students



During the 2020-21 school year, remote learning will likely be used in some form in most school districts. To make it work, schools need to have smart strategies for hybrid instruction (a combination of in-person and virtual learning), better approaches for increasing student engagement with online learning tools, effective plans for pivoting back to full-time remote learning if necessary, and ongoing training to help teachers improve their remote teaching skills throughout the school year. In addition, schools will need to address the big equity issues that emerged around remote learning during the spring of 2020, putting measures in place to ensure all students have access to digital learning devices, WiFi, and academic support. Join our guests for presentations about what schools need to do now and during the school year to ensure remote learning is effective and equitable.
