The U.S. Department of Education’s Institute of Education Sciences has awarded Georgia State University’s Georgia Policy Labs (GPL) $1.85 million to study the effects of remote instructional delivery and recovery strategies on student outcomes in grades K–12.

What is not known is why some students fared better than others in remote learning environments and how the various recovery strategies implemented by school districts may have impacted student outcomes. This project will use surveys and rich longitudinal data to examine the factors associated with higher achievement growth in remote instruction and the relationship between specific recovery efforts and multiple student outcomes.

The researchers expect their findings will provide short-run benefits to education agencies working to accelerate student learning and important insights to guide future research and practice as remote learning becomes a more important element in the post-pandemic educational landscape.
