Why doesn't online school work? You may be wondering that exact question if you don't have it. Well, it doesn't work because nobody cares. Nobody in actual school cares, but in actual school there are consequences for not doing work. But in online school nothing of the sort happens. You don't get any issues, you just interrupt the learning of people who don't want to fail.
Some people are ok failing. But most people aren't. And those people are limited from passing, because people aren't able to pass with teachers who can't teach, or distractions troubling the environment. For this reason, I think online school doesn't work well, because it doesn't enable the one thing school is supposed to do, teach.
Also it is bad for teachers. With losing the little power over their students they had before school ended, but now the students can annoy the teacher to their hearts content, and although maybe fail their class, it's not like the teacher will drive over to their house and set up detention in their house, they just get to suffer with missbehaving students.
Sincerely,
Someone whos school is now online
