As schools are becoming more adept at blended learning, teachers have moved the majority of their teaching online. For older learners, there are many benefits to this, especially for those running a home and family. However, for younger learners, especially children in early years, they often need a more tactile education. Children love to explore and learn socially. I wonder how successful online teaching will be for very young children. How can the human connection be maintained. It is very important to keep everyone safe, and for me teaching online is extremely convenient. However, I wonder what the consequences of making this arrangement permanent will be. It is important to consider the impact on children’s social development.
Let me know what your thoughts on online teaching are.
