[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Zoom is not a practical solution for online learning for a public school system.

And with regards to the time poster who brought up time stamps, that is irrelevant.

The google classroom and other school software monitors everything that is typed into the system.

For example, one of my kids classmates typed something inappropriate into a group document, then deleted it after the other kids read it.  The teacher was able to see what he typed and he got reprimanded.

The security required for school usage is unique and more comprehensive.

This is not such a crisis for the kids that waiting a week or two to set up proper online learning is going to harm their education or create a hardship.

There is not such a crisis that they need to rush past the better practice just to get an easy and fast solution that does not work for their needs.[/quote]

I disagree.

It's unacceptable.[/quote]

You are wrong.[/quote]

I disagree. I demand that local governments work with the same speed as the federal response.[/quote]

I get that you don't like homeschooling or entertaining your kids, but this is not an emergency requiring an impulsove solution

Even if they were using zoom (not a viable program for school) you would not have a class tomorrow.

They need to work out curriculum, access, grading, etc.

They have extensive online classroom programs they can use. The online platform is not the hold up.[/quote]

I've got no problem homeschooling my kids.  My kids haven't learned anything they didn't already know in montessori kindergarten other than virginia colonial history.

There are a vast number of parents in this area with STEM and high level policy backgrounds who are already coming up with ad hoc solutions,  surely a system with a 1.8 billion dollar budget can implement something in a week.[/quote]
