Operative words

This document provides information and clarification to districts, schools, leaders, teachers, students, and parents as they design and implement remote learning in response to the COVID-19 emergency... Remote learning is learning that happens outside of the traditional classroom because the student and teacher are separated by distance and/or time.... Structuring active student engagement with learning in accordance with the age-appropriate thresholds presented on page 17... The emphasis for schoolwork assigned, reviewed, and completed during the remote learning period is on learning, not on compliance
