COVID-19 Support Resources

During the uncertainty of the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, digital and remote teaching and learning have become priorities. Credible tools and resources to make this transition smoother are more important than ever as educators adjust lesson plans and classroom activities. The Friday Institute for Educational Innovation is continuing its commitment to supporting educators, collaborating with its community and providing resources for teaching and learning while educators and students are at home. See below for a collection of resources and stories about the work we’re doing.

    White Paper – Remote Learning in Times of Crisis: School and District Triage

    On March 14, 2020, all North Carolina K-12 schools closed due to the COVID-19 global pandemic. Educators across the state were tasked with developing inclusive remote learning plans while receiving minimal guidance around best practices. As school closures went from temporary to permanent for the remainder of the 2019-2020 academic year, students, families, teachers and administrators adapted to long-term remote learning. This unprecedented situation provided the opportunity to gather critical information regarding the implementation and administration of remote learning that will help inform how school districts will return to school this fall.
