I'm seeing a lot of teachers post that one advantage of remote teaching is fewer disruptions. While this is true, I also notice less engagement. I have students who are clearly looking down and doing something else (probably texting on phone?). Now that I can't ban cell phones in class, what can I do?

require them to participate in some way throughout- polls, chatbox, thumbs up/down. don't let them be passive the whole time. if that doesn't work, contact parents.

I use the chat box constantly and their chat activity is part of their grade. If anything constantly typing in the chat keeps the fingers busy. I do random check ins. If it takes a student too long to answer you know they were MIA. As a middle school student eventually the grade is going to suffer. Parents will get contacted. And maybe we will see an improvement.

And on the flip side of this...Real School is going to be a hard shift for all of us when we come back. You mean...I have to sit...for how many hours? With none of my fidgets? While wearing shoes? And without my music? And no cat in my lap? And I can’t lay down on the bed to do my practice?

Working in a large health system as a quality professional WFH. I rarely see anyone else on my team, and when I do present findings I see no changes happening.

I’ve been in healthcare for years but graduated with a masters in last two years and was hoping for something different. I have been applying to so many jobs and not many calls back. Any advice ?

But If you were called by your employer and you convince that you can work better from home and agreed to extend or convert you to remote..!

How do I politely inform the new reading teacher to quit saying “We was” and “I seen”?🥴 She’s a sub filling in the rest of the year due to unforeseen absence. I’ve even had students mention it to me.😬

funnylike

I just had a school secretary email me to say that one of my classes was ‘the worse class the sub had ever taught’. And that I should review class expectations with them. It’s a small 50 min reading class of 10 students (5th). About half of them receive SPED services. I haven’t had anything but minor off task behavior with this class before. I reached out to the sub to ask what happened so I can address it, but haven’t heard anything back. How should I address this with my kids today?
