      From: telecomdigestsubmissions@remove-this.telecom-digest.org              Why millions of students still can't get online              By Olga Khazan              At 8 a.m. Pacific time last Wednesday, I joined David Anderson's       12th-grade government class at Live Oak High by clicking on a Zoom       link.              Because California suffered a surge in coronavirus cases this summer,       students in Live Oak, a town about 50 miles north of Sacramento, will       be learning virtually for the foreseeable future. Both Anderson and       his students seemed nervous about how it would go. At 8:03, only eight       of the 24 students had logged on, despite the fact that Anderson's       "classroom expectations" sheet requested that everyone "log in to       class on time and prepared every day."              https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2020/08/virtual-l       arning-when-you-dont-have-internet/615322/              --       Bill Horne       Telecom Digest Moderator              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
