At this point, it's affecting a virtually the entire world.

Right now, the world's largest homeschooling experiment is taking place.

Millions of parents across the country are struggling as they try to home school their Children.

Governor's order to close schools Takes effect for everyone School closures Very unlikely schools would resume this school year way.

No, the impact of this virus will be far reaching.

But what does it mean for educational institutions and the Children learning within them?

Everybody is having a major change, but they're living this experience very differently.

And I think that's something we really need to keep in mind when we're thinking about solutions as well to recognize that the diversity of experience My name is Tracy Burns, and I'm, a senior analyst at the city, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.

I think that the goal for everyone would be to limit the closure as much as possible with within considerations of the public health imperative.

Of course, not just for morning but Also, just because school, when we think about and I think people are getting a renewed appreciation of this is clueless is more than a building.

It's it's part of the social fabric of our lots of Children's lives.

As schools closed their doors, many educators have turned toe online teaching to connect with their students.

Technologies stepped in to fill the void left by classrooms, but it's also creating a deepening inequality between those who have the tools to access materials and those who don't.

There's a lot of concern within the education, field and public health field, a boating, increasing inequality as a result of this crisis, because the kids who are already at risk are more likely to suffer, are less likely to have the access less likely to have the skills to use the devices that they do have access to them, and so they're more likely to fall behind.

And this could become quite easily a vicious cycle.

I mean, one of the challenges, I think, is the expectation Let's put on a parent.

It's lunchtime and in hiding in my son's room.

We were literally given notice, so there's no preparation.

I don't know where to find the resources.

You know, it's a burden to your regular routine.

We're lucky in our family that I'm able to be here with even the most skilled educator as a hard time balancing different demands of personalizing learning for very different rooms of Children to one of the things I think that's really a clear take home from the parents side is is to it's OK to do your best and to pay Teoh, it's OK to, you know, do not be perfect.

The most important thing for parents to do is self care, because in so many mothers, try to be teacher and mother at the same time, and it is just impossible for them to take on the role of a teacher.

I'm a, uh, clinical psychologist specializing in Children.

In that lesson, there are many families are experience in doing home schooling, and no matter how hard you try and it is a profession on its own, some students you know the attention span is very short.

They're not going to be talking to you in front of the computer for like an hour.

So those are the ones who is gonna be having a hard time.

One of the open questions, of course, is is the emotional impact, because this is very destabilizing for students, teachers, parents, all of us.

In fact on, that's where there's it's a lot less there.

Guys like going to school more or learning at home.

I prefer school because there teachers and friends.

Yeah, you can see your friends and I really missed.

I think the inside is toe is coming from the uncertainty about when is that gonna end?

And I think that is, you know, unsettling.

I do want to look at the positive off Children.

 As parents, teachers and Children begin to adjust to the new way of learning, it's worth acknowledging that some of the practices being used could be seen again after restrictions were eased before the covert 19 outbreak, educators globally had bean in talks about the need to bring education systems into the 21st century.
