[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Poll: Do you feel providing free education and educating the children of this country is an essential need? If yes, then why aren't teachers essential workers going back to their jobs (keep in mind many essential workers are working outside of the home, Drs nurses, day care, utility etc)? If no, then I think it is time we rethink and redefine our entire education system in this country and allocate those resources elsewhere, like to families who can use it to hire tutors, private schools, parent stay home to homeschool, pay for a pod, etc. [/quote] Your premise is flawed because it hinges on the supposition that teachers can only deliver this essential service by going back to school. As a private school teacher, I did a great job with my DL, and you would have been thrilled to have your kid in my class. For my AP classes, I had whole-group lessons on Zoom three times a week, but also required small group sessions, and I did a lot of one-on-one work with individuals to help brush up on skills. I spent MORE time planning and conducting DL lessons. I am 100% confident that I can deliver quality instruction to my students via DL. [/quote] Great, Like PP said. Lets try a semester. If parents/kids aren't satisfied then in person it is.[/quote]
