Abstract: Currently, the entire world is experiencing an unprecedented threat due to the outbreak of COVID-19, which requires the majority of K-16 education to be temporarily taught online. The three authors have been teaching virtual courses with a studio art focus for a number of years. We share our collective insights for approaches to instruction, interaction, and assessment in virtual courses that might help other art educators to achieve successful learning outcomes for their students. We learned that building a learning community and peer connections is of the utmost importance\; we propose mixing asynchronous and synchronous methods and providing prompt and comprehensive feedback on students’ artwork. The authors encourage other art educators to stay open-minded to new and flexible teaching environments, transforming this crisis into an opportunity to incorporate innovations into their teaching that even more effectively meet every student’s needs.
