| K-12 - Online learning in the K-12 space | TechTrends has produced a significant body of work Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning. The articles in this section address online learning in the K-12 space. The articles were selected because they can inform the conversation on rapidly transitioning to online teaching and were selected from a review of over 200 issues from 1990 - 2020. The articles focus on High School, but can also inform going online for K-12 stakeholders broadly. While online high schools have been around for many years, the process of curating the selection revealed that there were not as many articles for this sector as compared to higher education or out-of-school research. What the pandemic reveals then is that online learning research can not only be confined to adults; it is also now necessary to explore the use of some of these environments for and by younger learners.

| K-12 Crowdsourced Resources | As one of the responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, AECT solicited for suggestions of online resources (e.g., articles, posts, videos, documents, slides) and recommendations for best practices to support remote teaching and the transition to online course delivery. Given a number of topics (Class/Group Meetings, Delivering Content Online, Ensuring/Creating Student Access, Parents/Guardian Supports for At-Home Learning) to categorize contributions, our goal is to then evaluate these resources into a curated list that we can share and recommend to teachers, support staff, and district personnel with commentary. We are purposefully attempting to avoid an exhaustive list of resources. We do not want to overwhelm novice online teachers. Instead, we are leveraging our members' expertise and knowledge of best practices to provide a robust yet concise index. We plan to update this list from time to time.

| K12: Incremental Progress: Re-examining Field Experiences in K-12 Online Learning Contexts in the United States | LearnTechLib: Despite the call for a transformation of teacher education in the 21st century, surprisingly little has changed. This includes how the practical, hands-on component, known as a field experience is structured. Previous research, conducted in 2010, specifically examining how teacher education programs address K-12 online learning through their field experiences found that only seven programs nationally, or 1.3% of responding programs, offered such an experience. In comparison, the current study found a small expansion that includes 15 programs across nine states, representing 3.5% of responding teacher education programs. Despite being limited, there appears to be slow, targeted growth, particularly in contexts in which partnerships have formed between teacher education programs and K-12 online providers. However, while signs of progress are evident, significant work to move the field forward with respect to K-12 online teacher preparation remains.
