Check out what distance learning looks like across Orange County

School districts and teachers have been working to build virtual classrooms pretty much from scratch over the past week to ensure the continuity of learning for students while campuses remain closed.

Some teachers have created YouTube channels. Others are using social media, along with video conferencing platforms such as Zoom, Google Hangouts and Skype. Through these efforts, educators have been able to lead class discussions, meet one-on-one with students, or post lessons for students to work on during the day.

Many teachers have been sharing their virtual classroom experiences on social media over the last week. Here’s a sample of what distance learning looks like.
