It is called Khan Academy.Ĭlick here and collect a special report as our gift for your time spent. Today I want to talk to you about another platform, equally important and best of all free to use for home-schooling. In these past weeks, I have written on how to work from home admist coronavirus pandemic, how to start teaching online using zoom and how student and parent can meet teachers online for home tuition on zoom. And whiles health and safety should be our priority we shouldn’t forget the education of our kids and even that of ourselves. We know that these are challenging times for everyone. Many students will thrive, others will get by and an untold number will be left behind. Parents are facing new questions about what to push and what to let slide. Teachers are learning new ways to connect with students. The pandemic has forced millions of teachers, parents and students to try an unplanned and unexpected experiment in homeschooling. In practical terms, that means giving more control to teachers and parents. If society is decentralizing, eventually control of our education system will have to decentralize as well. Coronavirus pandemic has forced schools around the world to close, prompting a chaotic scramble to move online and find a way to somehow finish out semesters. It is true that for decades, the field of education has resisted society’s decentralizing trends.īut now it looks like the coronavirus will serve as the catalyst to help our schools catch up to the decentralizing trends of the larger society.Įducation is at a crossroads right now, where the choice is between clinging to old practices and theories or redefining learning.
This new era - driven by the digital revolution- has been sneaking up on us for decades.ĬOVID 19 has threatens most traditional institutions, like our school system by putting unprecedented power in the hands of individuals. It is not only pushing us into a new era, but it is also forcing us to recognize that a new era has already begun.
In these past few months, the novel coronavirus has changed the world.
