REMOTE LEARNING

Key Terms for Remote Learning Asynchronous Learning: Students participate in online learning at different times, and instruction is not de- livered in real-time. Students engage with materials and complete work at their own pace and schedule within a given timeframe.

Synchronous Learning: Students participate in online learning at the same time but in different locations. Students may virtually attend class together via video conferences, virtual learning spaces, or other platforms

Formative Assessment: The purpose of a formative assessment is to monitor student learning and provide feedback during a lesson, unit, or course. Teachers use a wide variety of methods to conduct in-process eval- uations; for example, conferring with a student. Summative Assessment: The purpose of summative assessment is to evaluate student learning at the end of an instructional unit or time period by comparing it against some standard or benchmark. Examples of summa- tive assessments include a final exam or end of unit assessment. Remote Learning: Students and the educator are not physically present in a traditional classroom environ- ment. Information is relayed through technology, such as virtual learning spaces, video conferencing, and online assessments.
