NYSED's Quality Remote/Hybrid Teaching: The Flexible Futures Instructional Framework (QRT) is available to provide resources for teachers, administrators, and educational leaders to inform high-quality, engaging instruction in any learning environment for all students, Commissioner Betty A. Rosa announced today. The QRT Framework results from nearly two years of work alongside educators and stakeholders through the Department’s Teaching in Remote Learning Environments (TRLE) project and input from more than 10,000 educators and other K-12 stakeholders.
Board of Regents Chancellor Lester W. Young, Jr. said, “Creating connections to increase equity and access to high-quality programming and instruction has never been more attainable. From the adversity of the pandemic comes an imperative to innovate, using 21st-century digital learning tools to expand existing teaching environments and look to the future of learning for all of New York’s students.”
Commissioner Rosa said, “We are dedicated to helping educators reimagine the boundaries of traditional classrooms using technology to create online and in-person collaborative learning spaces. While nothing can replace the importance of face-to-face instruction, we are working to effectively implement innovative, blended instructional approaches to meet the needs of all students no matter where they are, which will continue to be relevant across modalities for years to come.”
The framework features key focus areas, promising practices, and elements for implementation. More information may be found in today’s release: https://bit.ly/3ONXkCm
