To develop an understanding of what teaching was like during the COVID-impacted 2020-21 academic school year, researchers interviewed U.S. pK-12 teachers from across the country in public, charter, and private schools, at different grade levels, and in different subject areas. The primary message they heard from teachers is that they have not been valued as partners in designing educational responses to COVID.
The emphasis of the pK-12 Collaborative’s J-WEL Connections program was "Action Designing for Post-COVID." The conversations that emerged across all of our sessions and workshops will inform the J-WEL programs and collaborative activities moving forward. This report summarizes the pK-12 program and activities.
The U.S. Department of Education produced a 3-part series to aid educators in implementing the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines for the safe reopening of K-12 schools and institutes of higher education. Volume 1 provides recommendations for school leaders developing reopening plans or plans to keep schools open and safe for students, educators, staff, and families.
The U.S. Department of Education produced a 3-part series to aid educators in implementing the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines for the safe reopening of K-12 schools and institutes of higher education. Volume 2 aims to use evidence-based strategies to support equitable K-12 educational opportunities that address the impact of COVID-19 on students, educators, and staff, providing every student in America deserves a high-quality education in a safe environment.
The U.S. Department of Education produced a 3-part series to aid educators in implementing the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines for the safe reopening of K-12 schools and institutes of higher education (IHE).
Volume 3 was developed to provide initial answers to some of the most pressing questions for colleges, students, and families facing these challenges. The Handbook shares implementation stories and relevant information from the field, ranging from the full-time, on-campus recent high school graduate, to the returning student seeking re-training through online, part-time programming while balancing work and family, to the immigrant seeking English language skills, civics education, job training, and a high school equivalency with postsecondary on-ramps.
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced organizations to transform themselves almost overnight and overturned long-held assumptions about how we work, where we work, and the tools we use to get work done. How do we ensure that we capture the best of what we’ve learned and keep the digital momentum going in the post-COVID-19 world? J-WEL Principal Research Scientist discusses his research into what digital transformation means now and offers examples and guidance for leading in the new landscape.
Peter Senge moderates a conversation among three different scholars whose work spans diverse fields from brain science, clinical psychology, and systems change to explore some of the most pressing challenges and needs faced by educators and learners around the world and the positive impact and successful approaches that are being used to address them.
This report shares lessons learned about remote learning during COVID-19 and beyond.
Like so many institutions around the world, MIT made the abrupt transition to online teaching in the midst of the pandemic, thrusting all 1,251 of its spring 2020 courses online in late March of 2020. What did we learn from this experience both for faculty and students?

Widespread school closures are unprecedented, but the use of education technology and online learning to reach across distances, teach refugee and disaster-impacted communities, and expand the possibilities of schooling is quite common. In Failure to Disrupt: Why Technology Alone Can't Transform Education, MIT professor Justin Reich looks through the history of instructor-guided courses like MOOCs, algorithm-guided tools like adaptive tutors, and peer-guided spaces like networked learning communities. He argues that education technology has never sweepingly transformed schools, but there are specific tools and approaches that work well in certain subjects with certain students.
In this talk, Craig Zilles, Associate Professor and Education Innovation Fellow at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, discusses an effective, secure, and efficient alternative to traditional pencil-and-paper exams that scales to even the largest courses.
In May 2020, the authors of this report facilitated four online design charrettes with a variety of school stakeholders—students, teachers, principals, district leaders, parents, consultants, state officials, and others—to develop a design process for fall 2020 school planning. This report shares insights from those design meetings.
In this webinar, David Joyner, Executive Director of Online Education at Georgia Tech, takes novice remote instructors on a crash course to get ready to teach online for the first time.
Teaching working adults is different from teaching typical students. As companies and schools around the world have moved to remote instruction, many are grappling with questions of how to do it in the most effective way. Fortunately, some universities already have solid experience and lessons that they’re willing to share with groups that are navigating the transition.
COVID-19 is representing a challenge for traditional universities to be able to continue their teaching and learning activities remotely. In this webinar, Pedro M. Ruiz, Vice-chancellor at the University of Murcia, describes the initiatives his university developed and lessons learned within the three main phases: emergency learning continuity, digital assessment, and preparations for next course.
To plan for the fall K-12 semester, we need to bring together the long history of research on distance and online learning with these more recent data and reports. In this webinar, we discuss key relevant research, the emerging picture of remote learning, and strategies for planning during this summer for the challenges of the fall.
This document was created as a resource for those working on developing, implementing, and engaging in remote teaching and learning.
