Abstract
Learning loss is a dilemma that has been with educators and students for many years. Often learning loss can be explained by examining measurement issues that define student learning. The recent COVID-19 pandemic, however, has raised the concern of educators worldwide. During the pandemic, many schools were closed and students received instruction online. The online model of teaching was new to many teachers and learners. The development of these courses was often problematic as teachers may not have the skills to develop online courses. Additionally, a great deal of concern has been expressed about the effectiveness of online instruction and the effect it may have had on student learning and teachers' ability to effectively use this form of program delivery. Examined in this paper, are the factors that affect student learning and ways that schools were effective in delivering their instructional programs which indicated minimization of students' learning loss. This paper offers suggestions for the implementation of effective instruction that will enhance student learning. Keywords: COVID-19, disadvantaged students, interrupted schooling, learning loss
