​​Providing evidence-based resources 
​
for educators, students and researchers 
to improve achievement and equity in online learning 


Whether you are a first-time online instructor looking to get started, a veteran seeking to improve your online teaching, a student seeking ways to improve your online study skills, or a scholar or educational leader seeking the latest research on online learning, this site was designed for you. 
​

We provide evidence-based resources for educators, students, and researchers to improve achievement and equity in online learning.

Spotlight:  Equity

Picture
Tamara Tate and Mark Warschauer's article "Equity in online learning" is now available in Educational Psychologist.  The article discusses access and achievement in K-12 and higher education both before and after March 2020 through the lens of Warschauer's 2003 social inclusion framework.  Differing access to online learning, particularly when it becomes the primary mode of education, contributes to stratification or inclusion that is in part reflected in student attendance and achievement outcomes. This social inclusion lens changes the focus from providing equipment and instead to ensuring the individual and social resources needed for meaningful educational opportunities. Physical, human (individual), and social (community) resources are necessary for full inclusion in, and access to, online learning.
