As districts, schools, and families navigate a new normal following the abrupt end of in-person schooling this spring, students’ learning opportunities vary enormously across the nation. Access to devices and broadband internet and a secure learning environment are just a few of the many significant barriers to learning students now face.

Given these challenges, what can the research evidence tell us about how schools can provide high-quality distance and blended learning during the pandemic?

Join us for a lively discussion moderated by Education Week’s Stephen Sawchuk. The panel will draw on the evidence in the new EdResearch for Recovery brief, “Improving the Quality of Distance and Blended Learning.”
