State Guidance on Distance Learning during COVID-19: A Review of Four State Approaches. Fast Response
Truitt, Darlyne, Ed.
Region 7 Comprehensive Center
Considering how COVID-19 may impact the upcoming school year, members of the Region 7 Comprehensive Center (R7CC) Advisory Board requested information about best practices on distance and blended learning. To help slow the spread of the disease, social distancing strategies may include limited to zero access to school buildings, allowing for safety and health of the school community. The CDC's guidance for schools provides recommendations that may be challenging for districts to implement. As such, educators will require effective technology innovations to best provide continued learning for K-12 students during the pandemic. In response to this inquiry, this Fast Response provides a summary of guidance on what four states are providing for distance and blended learning. This Fast Response is organized into the following sections: (1) Procedure; (2) General Limitations; (3) Four State Approaches on Distance Learning During COVID-19; and (4) Conclusion.
