      But this is a utilitarian argument: more would be greatly benefited at the expense of the comfort of the few (mine included) if it means a student like Leandro will get more joy and growth out of this critical developmental period of their lives. And we could allow those students to stay at home if they want. But I would like to see them back in school for their own sake.

      It's not only hard for the kids but also for teachers. Live teaching is almost impossible because you need stable internet connection and sufficient internet quota. Those are like luxury for many students. Furthermore, some of them rarely paying attention to any materials or assignments given by their teachers since they have to help their parents who already have less income or even jobless due to pandemic. The teachers also can't do much facing this difficult situation.

Have a plant pot or garden so they can connect to something else. Read together. Watch tv together. Kids need communication! If they can't get it at school, try to give some of your time.

      High school felt like a pointless experience save for a few books and ideas I revisited as an adult. I feel that the reason why grade school provided hopelessness, listlessness, and depression is because of the approach to teaching.
      For instance, what's the point of doing algebra and reading literature and history if you're simply being tested at face value? Literature, history, and mathematics are fields of study that have grown out of interpretation. Regurgitating facts won't make the future, problem-solving and creativity will.

    My heart goes to Leandro and to the child his mother told in the story; not everyone can handle this situation the same way, no matter if they have all the resources to do it or nothing at all. This truly breaks my heart. Also, I wonder what would be the outcome for this generation: would they be more self-sufficient, and resolve problems easier due to be forced to learn by themselves at such young age? Will they be more cooperative or isolated when they grow up? What kind of jobs will they choose, the ones with a screen 24/7 or something more analog?

    I wanna thank DW for showing this documentary because we students are struggling in this pandemic. In the Philippines, all of us students have to do home schooling or online schooling bcz our government doesnt allow us to go out or we only have to go out only for essential purposes. It's kinda depressing we cannot see our friends in person or our teachers stuffing us lots of assigments and staring at a computer, phone, or tablet for so long. If u r depressed, u r not alone bcz we are all depressed in this pandemic and that includes me. This pandemic makes us all depressed, anxious, angry etc etc etc. Hopefully this pandemic will end and we can all go back to our normal lives like in 2019 or early 2020. A message from a student in the Philippines. STAY STRONG EVERYONE 👊.

      Regular school has deadlines too and weekly tests. In university you have tests and deadlines too. Whole distance learning actually saves you tons of time as you dont have to walk anywhere, and you dont have to worry about pointless subjects, you save a couple hours per day minimum. I mean lets be honest, you have all the time in the world to do your task , you have the textbooks you can even rewatch the lessons, but you just dont do it because nobody is controlling you. With that attitude you wouldnt do well in regular school or uni as well.

    I feel so much for our future. I'm a teacher in Toronto, Canada and I see the same concerns from my grade 8 students but unlike most teachers I do not have deadlines, instead I have conferences with my class about what would be "doable" for them. If teachers are giving such strict guidelines, they need a talking to. Have they forgotten what it was like to be a kid? This virus needs to take a back seat to our children's mental well-being.

    • @miaum1976
      @miaum1976 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      You have the leeway to have "conferences." Others don't. Consider the fact that there is a cultural and legal framework in which German teachers operate and that they're obliged to use methodologies they might not be personally fond of if they want to keep their jobs. It should have been fairly obvious that this isn't a matter of one or two teachers being rigid and old-fashioned, but that they have a systemic problem. In my experience, the German approach to most things tends to be cautious, rather than experimental. Once they decide to implement something, they do it thoroughly and competently, but the process is not fast. During an unexpected crisis like this, the lack of "agility" unfortunately is a major drawback. It's not the teachers who should be chided for this, but their lawmakers and ministers who should be pushing for reforms.

      @@Peterbrendanalbert Learning responsibility means learning to make your own bed, or holding your little sister's hand as you cross the street. This isn't that. It's taking on the role of teacher, the role of mother, at a time when this girl should be in school herself, just being a kid. That is sad.
      I don't know if it was sad when you did it. You say you "took responsibility" but that's too vague to really tell me anything about what you were doing. Were you sacrificing hours of your day - focus you could have been giving to your own education - to teach your younger siblings? Did you give up the little play time you had left to cook and clean for them? Were your responsibilities a burden that aged you before your time?
      Because with schools closed and parents working, this is the situation that faced many kids over the last year. Particularly girls. And many people don't even see anything wrong with putting a young girl in this position, because in their eyes, it's her natural role and good practice for future motherhood. Her own potential, her own needs, take a back seat.
      I was such a child, praised for how "mature" and "responsible" I was. And now, in adulthood, my family can't understand why I don't want children of my own. But why would I? Would a mother whose kids have finally left home after eighteen years want to start the cycle again with a newborn? Of course not. She's exhausted, and wants to figure out who she is beyond the role of mom. Well, this is exactly what my parents unwittingly created in me. I'm great with kids but I've been there, done that, and have no desire to do it again.
      Kids are not mini-adults. Teaching and parenting are jobs adults choose, and in the case of teachers and childcare practitioners, are trained and paid to do. Kids aren't. Kids should have kid responsibilities, like "brush your teeth at night" and "do your homework".
      Many of the kids in this documentary already spoke about how hard it was for them to meet deadlines and be in control of their own attention span during e-learning. In the school environment, a teacher would provide structure and help keep them on track. And it's clear they miss that. "Learning responsibility" in this case hasn't made these kids strong. It's been too much for them. They're stressed out and falling behind. And no wonder! There's a reason we don't just toss kids into a school building with a video playing on a laptop all day. There's a reason they don't just teach each other.
      Adult supervision and support is key to creating healthy, happy kids.

My parents can't help me with my schoolwork because they don't really understand it, so I'm largely on my own to figure things out. It's incredibly frustrating and I wish the school system would acknowledge that and then take steps to make their policies less unreasonable, but they've been a brick wall this last year and some change - they're so stuck in their ways that I'm convinced they won't ever fix their problems.

      Then you enter adulthood and think knowledge is just remembering information, which is complete bullshit. Our level of understanding is what is important, and that has got nothing to do with whether we remember what went down in this or that city in this or that year...

    Even before the pandemic, german schools are known for overwhelming the kids with too much homework and assigments. Now learning online, it became even easier for teachers and schools to give kids even More homework to do. There must be a balance, they are only kids, they need time to live and enjoy their childhood.
