Abstract
Technological advances in virtual learning have made the option of remote learning accessible to most student as an alternative, however, is it effective to all learners? Due to recent pandemic of COVID-19 the option for online learning was the only option for a close alternative to in-person learning for all grade levels. Nonetheless, some school districts were unable to provide proper tools to conduct virtual learning through the abrupt transition at the start of the outbreak. When schools were responding to the pandemic of COVID-19, the first consideration was to ensure the safety and health for all (The Education Trust, 2020). Students and teachers had to adjust immediately to this new way of learning. By utilizing many types of online tools and resources to maintain the continuity of education. The purpose of this paper is to examine online tools and resources used by teachers to provide virtual education and their effectiveness for replicating learning and face to face interaction.
