What We’re Learning About Online


Learning 
Over four days in mid-March, Cindy Hansen, an 11th
grade English teacher at Timpanogos High School in
Orem, Utah, in the United States had to go fully
virtual, and took her class of some 30 students
reading “The Great Gatsby” online. 

Ms. Hansen had no experience with virtual courses


and, like teachers around the country, had to
experiment. She decided to upload video lessons —
presenting the text of “Gatsby” along with a small
window in the corner of the screen, in which she
read aloud key passages and assigned essays. 

The transition seemed to be proceeding smoothly


until, after several lessons, she received a note from
a student who rarely spoke up in class. 

(1) “He’s one of my sweetest students, and he


wrote, (2) ‘Ms. Hansen, those videos are glitchy

— I can’t really see the text,’” she said in a


phone interview. (3) “I had just assumed they
were fine. Well, they were horrible, and the poor
kid felt frustrated. I’m glad he said something.”
She quickly fixed the problem, she said, by
reshooting the videos directly on the teaching site or
learning management system instead of uploading
them. 

After this spring’s on-the-fly experiment in online


classes, teachers and school districts across the
country are preparing for what will be anything but a
normal fall semester. Some districts stumbled in the
transition, with classes zoom-bombed and
interrupted; many strained to address serious
inequities in access to computers. Recent research
finds that most students fell months behind during
the last term of the year, with the heaviest impact on
low-income students. 

Other schools like Timpanogos, transitioned with


less disruption, in part by mobilizing facilitators,
coaches and other staff members to support both
teachers and students who were in danger of
logging off and checking out, according to a report
by researchers in the field of education.

Now, most districts are facing a future in which


online courses will likely be part of the curriculum,
whether that entails students returning in shifts or
classrooms remaining closed because of local
outbreaks. And underlying that adjustment is a more
fundamental question: How efficiently do students
learn using virtual lessons? 

“What we’re finding in the research thus far is it’s


generally harder to keep students engaged with
virtual lessons,” no matter the content, said Jered
Borup, an associate professor in learning
technologies at George Mason University. “Overall,
though, that is not the distinguishing feature here.
Rather, it is what supports the student when learning
virtually. That makes all the difference.”
