Here's another list of lessons learned from the pandemic. I don't really think much of list - but everything I know on this subject is derived from what other people have written about it, so I'll add it to the list. The first item on the list is that "the digital divide is still big and complex". Well, yeah. But it's not just a digital divide, it's a socio-economic divide. The problem isn't technology, the problem is a lack of fair income distribution. The next is that "relationships are everything when it comes to keeping kids engaged remotely," which is by and large not true, otherwise we can't explain things like online games or TikTok. Another point talks about teachers "yelling through a mask and face shield to be heard by students over Zoom," which tells us nothing about virtual school, but everything about incompetent administration.
