US: 5 Things We've Learned About Virtual School In 2020
By ITS Education Asia
Here is a very interesting article from the National Public Radio (NPR) on lessons learned by teachers after teaching online for the first time for an extended period of time.
The points raised are:
- The digital divide is still big and complex.
- Relationships are everything when it comes to keeping kids engaged remotely.
- Digital teaching can be good, even great with the right support for teachers. But that's far from the norm.
- Hybrid models are extremely challenging.
- Some kids are not learning much online. They'll be playing catch-up in years to come.
It shows how difficult it is to truly modernize our traditional, large school, large class models of education.
