EPIT Conversation: An Exploration of Distance Virtual Learning in New Zealand Michael K Barbour 2024-06-19 | A conversation with Professor Michael Barbour, Touro University California, US and Derek Wenmoth, Futuremakers, Wellington, NZMichael visited New Zealand, during March and April 2024, undertaking a national survey of, and interviews with, primary and secondary distance learning organisations. His research will look to identify trends found within the data collected from the distance learning providers and make recommendations to allow for a rationale growth of primary and secondary virtual learning in New Zealand.The COVID-19 pandemic showed that distance/virtual learning within the school sector was possible, but it also highlighted much of the inequity within the system. It is important to understand distance/virtual learning prior to the pandemic, the specific impact the pandemic had, and how it has emerged post-pandemic. A critical part of the research is to examine the potential of distance/virtual learning to ensure equity of access and opportunity for our Māori students, and those not living in major urban areas.This discussion focused on what has been ascertained so far and what trends are beginning to be seen; and postulates on how elearning and distance education, when delivered well, can address many of the inequity barriers to obtaining an education.ABOUTProfessor Michael Barbour is Director of Faculty Development & Professor of Instructional Design, College of Education and Health Sciences, and Fellow for the Center for Innovative Learning and Teaching, Touro University California.

IN Learning Lab: Key Components to Consider When Planning Virtual Programs Michael K Barbour 2024-06-19 | Event Name: Key Components When Planning Virtual Programs Event Description: Online and virtual learning options are not just for emergency situations, they should be a part of the regular educational ecosystem that is public schooling. So what are the key things to figure out when you're thinking about establishing virtual programming for your students? What are the decisions that need to be made about the structure of your program? The mode and modality of instruction? The affordances and limitations of various tools that can be used to provide synchronous instruction, asynchronous course content and communication, and/or student assessment? The specific supports that students might need in order to have success?
