Shifting to Online Instruction requires districts and schools to consider many aspects even before students can begin to learn. The structures and routines that are set up are critical to the future success of teachers and students.
This session will provide the considerations to be made prior to shifting and provide extensive resources to assist districts and schools with these decisions.
Modes of learning
The Structures and Routines e-Notebook is the primary source for supporting the Shift to Online Learning. The notebook is intended to be used synchronously or asynchronously, depending on the end user. The material in the e-Notebook is also presented on a web page.
