Variations in District Strategies for Remote Learning during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Appendixes. REL 2021-118
Regional Educational Laboratory Central
The "Variations in District Strategies for Remote Learning during the COVID-19 Pandemic" study examined proposed strategies in districts' remote learning plans to ensure continuity and to better support remote learning in Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, and Wyoming. This study used document analysis to examine proposed strategies related to infrastructure; strategies and supports for instruction; and supports for teachers, students, and parents. The study found that proposed remote learning strategies varied considerably and were often related to district characteristics. Although district capacity to implement remote learning has likely improved since the start of the pandemic, state education agency leaders can use the findings in this report to consider providing more support to districts with persistent Internet connectivity challenges. Leaders can also use the report to inform additional data collection to examine how remote learning strategies have evolved and to help determine the implications of the shift on student learning. This document presents the following seven appendixes that accompany the study: (1) Brief literature review; (2) Coding protocol for document analysis of remote learning plans; (3) Proposed remote learning strategies for districts in Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, and Wyoming; (4) Proposed remote learning strategies by district Internet connectivity; (5) Proposed remote learning strategies by district poverty quartile; (6) Proposed remote learning strategies by district locale; and (7) Data and methods.
