OPINION: Hybrid Learning - Is This Really the Best We Can Do?
We’re talking about spending $175 billion to socially distance students on school buses, put shower curtains and plexiglass in classrooms, buy hand sanitizer and make sure we can do deep cleaning after every class. That’s $175 billion for short-term, temporary solutions. What if we spent more of that money on long-term professional development for teachers, raising their mastery of hybrid learning?
