[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can discount the findings however you want, but in the introduction, the author references several other studies that point to off-task behavior being around 25-30%. When figuring out how much of the day was instructional, I took out time for lunch, recess, and specials, plus transitions, because like I said, most parents do this outside of the 2-3 hours of academic work. Are you really arguing that 2-3 hours of one on one (or even one to three) instruction is really less than 4-5 hours of instruction with 25 kids, esp. When kids are coming and going to ESOL, Special Education, instrumental music practice, etc? I've taught in the classroom, homeschooled, and had my child in public and for us it's definitely more efficient homeschooling. Plus I can teach with a glass of wine.[/quote] For one child, I'm sure it is. I'm not convinced about the parents who have 3 or more children they're homeschooling.[/quote]
