Most unawareness-and-fear-driven people who believe in the old-school mentality (the “hold onto your 1 skill or job for dear life” approach and such) would have a hard time understanding the new wave of nomad capitalists who are choosing to establish themselves in more than 1 location in the world (for living). By removing the barriers to movement, thinking, and communicating, they are able to create a life that is best for them and not what the local more expensive societies want them to create. We have now seen that one more barrier is being removed: that of learning being restricted to classrooms. Bringing the nomad family lifestyle dreamers closer to their goal. I recall telling my one closed-minded friend months ago that I don’t believe in enforcing classroom learning in its current state as a more mobility-friendly process is needed to unblock the freedom lifestyle for traveling families that are now growing in numbers. A stay-at-home mom with no formulated intentions for the future past the point of raising kids, obviously she criticized me for being unrealistic. What most people ignore about me is that I pick up on certain trends that materialize in the end, sometimes years ahead of the curve. Especially when a trend has a specific relevance to my goals. Which, in this case, has to do with remote education for kids. It only took less than 4 months since that conversation for this country to launch the online education process for public schooling. Really, who else thinks that things will always remain the same when it comes to schooling? If you aren’t seeing what I’m seeing (even in its infancy stage with many issues, of course), then take off your blinders! And if you are building a nomad (capitalist or whatever you wanna call it) lifestyle for yourself and your family and know that the current school system is ineffective and know what the heck I’m talking about, good for you!

I know so many of you parents really oppose e-learning so this may be an unpopular opinion…
Some of the professionally-done (pre-recorded) courses I took online recently were so well done that if this format was available back when I was in university, I don’t think I’d ever leave university. Ever. And would probably never leave my room. Sorry, dear friends, but it’s hard to beat discussions about Ancient Egypt 3D modeling that was not available when I was in a regular classroom, with a group of like-minded nerds. Like there should be a “student as a profession” profession where you get paid to keep learning 🤣.
The wisely condensed and visually presented info that smartly structured e-courses are offering now not only save an immense amount of time and energy for everyone involved (ie record once; keep enrolling students year after year) but they open up opportunities to retain information better without stress. So if you are a slower learner, you can go back and review the material.
So let’s say you’re a bit of an archeology junkie (like me). With the technology available for e-learning now you could have online access to all kinds of archives that you would previously need to spend half a day just to get to at a library. So now in 1 day you can research more material for your papers and take more courses (if you’re as obsessed as I am) that you actually enjoy.
Yes, there is the socialization issue that is so necessary for a healthy self-development. But this is where schools could organize mandatory get-togethers twice a week where kids don’t just stare at each other in class and only have 15 mins between classes to chat, but are given 2 whole school days specifically to interact with each other.
I don’t get why parents complain so much if in reality, students never got more than ~1.5 hrs of daily interaction anyway: 45 min lunch break plus 15 min between classes. (I’m talking about middle and high-school). If they got together with the wrong crowd, they started skipping classes and went smoking behind the building etc.

If you are all defending the daily socialization thing so much, there wasn’t all that much of it anyway! It was basically only during lunch and a lot of looking around the classroom while in class.
So if kids were given 2 days per week of mandatory in-person interactions where they got to discuss their courses and talk to teachers, that would not be such a bad solution, no?
3 days at home and 2 at school. Like something like this might actually get me excited about having kids 🤣. But I remember myself as a kid and I hated having to physically drag my feet to school early in the morning. To this day, don’t expect me to function until after 9 and we’ll get along fine lol.
Thoughts?
(Personally, I would have loved this hybrid format between full online and in-person).
