It's 1 pm ET, which means the first #COVedStories has begun.

Greetings to everyone in the instructional design and ed tech space!
Here's our plan.

Over the next few hours I'll share questions about your experience during the pandemic. The fine @gu_ldt faculty, staff, and students put these together.

They include:
-the shift to remote learning
-equity and social justice
-data
-innovation

#COVedStories
@gu_ldt I'll ask each question with a number (Q1), and you can reply in the same way (A1).

Please tag #COVedStories so we can see them all.

So the CDC has a new study about #highereducation and #COVID19 .

Listen closely.

First, CDC links pandemic spread with f2f campuses:

"university counties with in-person instruction (n = 79) experienced a 56% increase in incidence, comparing the 21-day periods before and after classes started."

56%!
Second, CDC links teaching online to *lower* pandemic spread:

"U.S. counties with large colleges or universities with remote instruction (n = 22) experienced a 17.9% decrease in incidence"

Biden is now speaking.

This is chaos from a small number of extremists, a mob, bordering on sedition.
Biden calls on Trump to go on national tv and call for an end to the "siege."
Biden's calling for unity and decency, 'not stoking the flames of hate and chaos.'

America is about tolerance and decency. That's who we are.
