The Coronavirus pandemic had a significant effect on teachers when traditional face-to-face classroom instruction abruptly shifted online in the spring of 2020. It also provided educators the unique opportunity for continued growth and development in incorporating technology into their instruction. The purpose of this study was to examine educators' s learning experiences in utilizing virtual learning technologies to provide instruction during the COVID-19 pandemic. Researchers conducted two (2) online focus group interviews with participants (N = 9). The focus group transcriptions were qualitatively analyzed for themes. The findings from the focus groups are discussed in this article. The resulting implication is the 3E (Efficient, Effective and Engaging) application checklist to utilize when selecting instructional online tools and incorporating technology in the classroom.
