Abstract

Much research has been conducted to understand and examine K-12 online/hybrid learning during the COVID-19 global pandemic, however, little research has studied this unique educational situation from the parents’ perspective. Using Schwab's Traditional Curriculum Design Framework, this study examined the four common places of education for K-12 students’ emergency remote education (ERE) based on parent’s input. By qualitatively analyzing 662 comments from parents and guardians during Fall 2020 semester, this study identified the key pedagogical challenges, technological barriers, and mental health concerns during the ERE, and proposed a revised Framework to guide further research and practice in preparing for quality online/hybrid education in the future.
