A) The focus could be on the front/teacher.
B) the kids can "opt out" like they do with yearbook.

Frankly, I don't see why this can be done. The PP IT guy seems to recognize that it could be relatively easy. I note that one of the grades at my ES uses an app where the teacher uploads videos of the class already (at this point just activities that class has done that day). THe app was free and it has been very seamless so far. Parents and kids love it.

While I think it could be used system-wide for some of the things other posters note (taking classes at different schools), I think it could easily be implemented now so kids could have access to lessons missed due to illness. It's already being done on a teacher by teacher basis.

And as for the science-based classes, I know a lady who did a medical-based graduate degree via distance.  All classes online and then partnered with a local college (in this case it would be their own HS) to do the labs.  Very easy.[/quote]

It can, but why do we want our entire lives videotaped just for a class missed? Of course the course would change because of this. The benefits do not outweigh the problems with this idea.[/quote]
