[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hoping that MCPS will go virtual AND will address the reasons why it was not as effective as in-person teaching. The reason why virtual learning did not go well last year for many is not so much the format. It is due to grade inflation, the fact that teachers can not give less than 50% even when students are cheating or not doing the work, the fact that students don't have to attend a class more than a minute to be officially present, that they did not have to turn their camera on, the lack of deadlines except for the last day of the marking period... Teachers want to instill good work ethics, good habits, honesty... They are forced to do just the opposite. This is not how we prepare children and teenagers for their future.[/quote] FFS. Virtual doesn't work for children because children are not robots. Even rodents get stressed by social isolation; you think primates do better with it? [/quote] Most children are not isolated during virtual learning. They have their siblings and families around them. We are talking about a couple of weeks. Sorry that you don’t know what to do with your kids unless they are in a school building. [/quote] Sorry you don’t realize that not every child has a sibling, not every child has a family that apparently just lays around the house with the children like you do, sorry you don’t realize that some children actually have really poor home lives and would rather be at school. Sorry you don’t realize that for some children home life is very dangerous -home life has no food, home life has no electricity, home life has no stability. You’re a pompous jerk. I sincerely hope you never had children.[/quote] +1 Sounds completely crazy, Old and bitter.[/quote]
