Abstract

At the Quality Matters Research Online Conference, presenters Banker and Voelker (Citation2021) shared their research examining the perceptions of K–12 teachers about their teaching and professional experiences during the pandemic. The presenters’ study indicated that only 16.1% of the participating teachers thought they had received adequate training for remote teaching during the summer of 2020 for fall 2020 implementation. The 51 people attending their presentation, mostly higher educators, were also surveyed through a Zoom poll about their preparation for remote teaching. Notably, only 17% of the attendees felt they had received proper professional development for online education. This finding suggests that educators have been negotiating and navigating challenges during the pandemic.
