[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are all extroverts.  They also are high performers academically.

I think the reason why they love DL so much is that all of the class fools are completely mitigated online.  It has been such a relief to them, from my high schooler to my middle schoolers to my elementary schooler, that the fools are knocked out of the game.  The teachers are teaching and my kids are knocking it out of the park.  Instruction is "bell-to-bell" so to speak.

Plus my kids have a lot more time for sports and relaxing.  I think it helps that they have a wide circle of friends who are all pretty technologically adept.[/quote]

Do high school classes for high performers really have large populations of class fools in need of muting? [/quote]

No. I’m a high school teacher and most don’t turn on cameras or participate. This is true for all of the levels I teach. I have 1-4 cameras on each class and almost no one ever uses voice. I’m amazed when I walk my my elementary DD’s class and see a screen full of faces. [/quote]

I'm the person you are responding to. I was basically questioning the PP's statement that her high performing high school students are doing better because the class fools aren't showing up. I question whether there were really "class fools" in "high performing "classes in the first place so that their absence would make a huge difference. [/quote]

Did you read where I said I have high school students, [b]middle school students[/b] and[b] elementary school students[/b] in my family?  Why are you only asking about my high school AP kids?  Yes, class clowns and behavior problems exist even in Honors classes and TAG classes in Middle School and Elementary School.   Their absence makes a HUGE difference in the quality of teaching and learning for my kids.  They are happy those kids are sidelined.  May it continue.   :lol: [/quote]
