With school buildings closed by COVID-19, schools and districts across the country are rapidly (and sometimes frantically) transitioning to distance learning. But most have no experience serving large numbers of students remotely, and the research base that might help them identify best practices is lamentably thin. It is therefore critical to quickly and efficiently figure out what works--and what doesn't--in this rapidly evolving landscape. In this webinar, we discuss a free tool that districts and schools can use to test and identify--in real time--which online learning approaches work best for their own students. We'll discuss what you'll need to make the tool work for you and how you can be strategic about using existing data.
