PLTW’s Distance Learning Support Embedded Curriculum Enhancement

PLTW worked through course content and listened to feedback from educators to provide distance learning enhancements for students directly within their existing curriculum.

Since in fall 2020, we've provided support for distance learning in Courses in myPLTW, which include general overview information, caregiver letters, and distance learning path maps to help them prepare for the upcoming school year. In the PLTW Gateway and PLTW High School curriculum, students and teachers also see a new section labeled Distance Learning Opportunities that includes various “quests” that teachers can assign to supplement their curriculum at any point.

These embedded enhancements provide guidance, including alternatives specific to individual activities, projects, and problems for a student who is not in the classroom.
