Former Education Sec. King Talks Widespread Learning Loss Amid Pandemic
If the governors of states give it to education.
Duh. Schools were shutdown and remote learning isn’t efficient for most students. This is a direct result of china virus lockdowns.
“Here lies a MAGA, who gave his life in order to own the libs. May he forever rest in freedumb.”
Blacks and brown people are disproportionately dying more from the china virus than white people.
Last I checked most black and brown people don’t vote republican.
Lockdowns have a direct effect on education.
We need to demolish the Department of Education, let the states take control 👍
Let’s go to Ronald have a talk people. Where does he live?
Just remember folks, it didn’t have to be this way. We have purveyors of lies, chaos, and death, like Abbott, DeSantis, and T. Carlson to thank for this.
Great guys, all of them
The social interaction children get from actually going to school is irreplaceable. You can’t completely learn socially or academically through Zoom calls..
The grave is worst.
@Veronica Conde This is not killing children, they are quite resilient. Elderly are having a much tougher time. If children are immune deficient or at higher risk then maybe they would be homeschooled regardless.. Otherwise your fearmongering statement just shows your ignorance on the subject. Care to explain further the proof of this incredibly survivable virus making casualties out of children?
If there’s no gym or recess or other structurally needed programs, it’s still the same as learning at home.
So wat? Hoo needz ejicashun?
Actually many professional cyber schools are excellent. The trouble during the pandemic is schools were required to do a fast u-turn. Neither the school systems nor the teachers were prepared for the task. Socialization can occur outside of school, although this was difficult during the pandemic.
Holy cows! It’s just difficult. Kids suffer in their lives and mental health. I worry about it. Even ..,my grown up son got covid. He had a bad head cold lately. We are both vaccinated. It’s just scary with the situation as a deadly virus. Praises to Stephanie Rule! Thanks.
IQ45: I love the uneducated and they love me
🤣🤣. It seems to be holding true as a side note put a – in the equation🤣
As a teacher, I think the delay of learning content is not nearly as impactful as the social aspects of remote learning. When kids want to learn they learn very quickly. When they don’t want to learn they usually won’t. Additional curriculum support to help teachers connect learning to life experience (I teach algebra) will permanently improve our education system.
