EAB opened to 2020-2021 school year on August 3 via distance learning. The purpose of this post it to use our experiences in the opening weeks as a means to help smooth the opening for other schools in Brazil and around the world.
Each week I make a two to four minute video about to discuss with the parents and students of the High School a matter of importance or interest to the EAB Community. Usually the videos include students and happen on our campus. During distance learning, however, they happen in my backyard under our mango tree. My daughter Nina is often the camerawoman.
A few weeks ago I addressed a question prevalent on our campus during distance learning as to why we require students to keep their cameras on during synchronous instruction. There are a number of reasons why we do this, but in order to keep the video at two minutes I kept my response to what we feel is the most important of those reasons. See above or click here to see that response.
Good luck and best regards,
David
