Distance learning requires educators to organize and distribute information to students who are not physically present in their classrooms. It also requires that students engage in tasks that are both independent and collaborative. In this laminated guide, Monica Burns walks teachers of grades 4-12 through the five essentials of distance learning in synchronous and asynchronous environments:

- Creating and curating instructional content
- Encouraging participation and engagement
- Inviting student collaboration
- Assessing and checking for understanding
- Building partnerships with families

This guide will help teachers explore how to implement and facilitate online learning environments with flexibility, feasibility, and accountability in mind.
