Learning Recovery: Resources & Funding

Relief for Teachers

Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, many K12 teachers and university professors are walking into classrooms where students have the most widely different academic skills and social-emotional needs in recent history.  More individualized instruction is required to close the gaps. Below are details on free resources, advanced resources, and funding available to help you provide the personal attention your students will need on the road to recovery.


Free Differentiation Crash Course for Classroom Teachers

The non-profit Academy of Active Learning Arts and Sciences is offering the Differentiation Specialist Certification at no cost to all FLGI certified educators.

The Flipped Learning 3.0 Differentiation Certification addresses one of the biggest challenges teachers face this school year. How do I give the right instruction at the right time to every student in a class of 20, 30, or more?

This complimentary course is a step-by-step guide to planning for differentiated instruction, differentiating assessment, and classroom management in a flipped classroom. The course includes practical strategies from a cadre of 16 differentiation masters, including Dr. Carol Ann Tomlinson, Dr. James (Jim) Delisle, and Birgit A. Jensen.

When you complete this master class you’ll receive the Flipped Learning 3.0 Differentiation Specialist Certification to add to your professional resume.

Funding for Learning Recovery

Though many educators dislike the term “learning recovery,” in March of 2021, a federal program earmarked $126 billion for K12 schools. Five percent of those funds must be spent on evidence-based learning recovery programs.

For teachers, this means these funds may be used to strengthen the skills you personally want to enhance to manage the highly diverse academic needs of your students this term. Many teachers are unaware of the details of this funding source, so we are providing fact sheets that you can use to request more personalized support, paid for by your school administration. The program is called the American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act and it includes the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief Fund.  (ARP ESSER.)
