[quote=Anonymous]We have kids at different schools - mixed results.   I'm in technology and have designed virtual learning for many years, so some of the pitfalls I could see coming.

The schools that kept it simpler and focused, it's going better.   The teachers seem to execute it on it better and the kids are less frustrated with all the technology changes.  Some of the teachers really shined.

The schools that took on too many different technologies - not as impressed.   Lots of glitches - too many changes (for middle school students).   Was frustrated also when teachers didn't notice their video quality was barely audible or the image in the video was not able to be read and there was no other way to read something.    Sigh.

I think that teachers that focused on learning without a screen (in addition to screen) are the best mix.  I.e, video /google classroom, then written / reading assignment to do, office hours if needed.   Too much screen time is not good.   Please don't do all IXL, all online learning tools.

I'm a fan of the schedules that have some flexibility especially juggling multiple kids.  Kids need to get outside more especially if things worsen.
