It would be much better if school districts and governments used this time to come up with a better way to do remote learning - including addressing all the negative impacts to students and parents - than coming up with in-person guidelines that cannot possibly work. Yes, remote learning has lots of issues and, like most issues, affects those folks with the least resources. (As an aside, that's true about in-person learning, too.)

1/ I'm considering offering two online courses and would appreciate your ideas. Both courses will be free (although donations will happily be accepted :-). My thinking is that while many folks are overwhelmed with things to do while stuck at home others are perhaps getting bored. 2/ I'm also thinking that we may be in for an extended period of time where we may open up for a while but then return to stay at home for a while, and some folks will be looking for things to do.

As I see it (and I am very, very, very biased) @COJasonGlass @SuptEwert our school districts have a choice to make regarding the various protests that are planned by students and teachers. Our districts also have intimate acquaintance with the issue. I sorta see three options. 1) Hard line: forbid and punish 2) Middle ground: "we support our students and teachers right to protest but cannot support walking out of school" -also known as "cop out" 3) Get behind it, organize, use it as a teachable moment.
