[quote=Anonymous]I think there are small/simple changes the schools can make, based on experience. I think they will. 1. There should be more synchronous learning. Sure, allow breaks, but let them engage with each other for longer each day. I don't expect 7 hours of instruction, but 3-4 is reasonable, even for ES (like their current summer school). 2. There need to be smaller classes/groups/cohorts for DL. 30 kids gazing in the computer screen is not good for anyone. BPt them in classes of 10-15 kids, do lots of small group activities with groups of 3-5. 3. There should be small asynchronous assignments that students can use to review with little or no help (as parents may or may not be able to help). 4. More instruction from people the kids know (local school teachers/staff), and less from a generic teacher. 5. Challenge them. Introduce new material. Try to push them and then provide additional support for those that need it. [/quote]
