Virtual and blended learning has become increasingly prominent in the educational landscape as a means of addressing the many challenges linked to accessible and equitable learning. Amideast has been concerned with the question of whether this distance learning mode affects the quality of learning and program effectiveness since its English language programs across 10 countries went online in March 2019 — with synchronous, asynchronous, and hybrid-model classes for young and adult learners. Providing training to Amideast teachers on planning and delivering virtual and blended classes and orienting learners on the e-learning platform used in running these classes became needed steps in preparation for such a major shift. In this session, the managers of an Amideast pilot study to monitor and evaluate virtual learning shared the methodology and tools used, as well as early insights about monitoring teachers’ readiness as they develop their competencies in planning and managing virtual classes, and about evaluating teaching and learning constructs that affect the quality of learning and program efficiency and effectiveness in virtual programs.
