Here's Why We Like Distance Learning

“The equity divide is more exposed than ever and, in many places, institutions are doing more than they ever have to address it. We are finally listening to what our best educators have been saying for decades: We must ensure that all students have the resources, at home, in their communities and in school, that are required for learning and, ultimately, self-actualization. Virtual classrooms have forced our hands. There is less ambivalence about building bridges to success. That’s a good thing, and I am thankful for it.”
