Ethics Assignment

The class discussion was on remote learning, the question that was being debated was if student should return to in school classes next semester. The student we are focusing on its elementary school student. The size I was given during this debate was that we should not go to in school class next semester. The point I made to get my view and my size point across were.

  • In school classes are better for the student because it helps them with staying focus and sometimes the school is the only environment that is safe for the student because of unstable homes. Also, this helps with other distraction an elementary school kid may face while remote learning.
  • It is very important for kids to engage with other kid to build social skills that are going to help them when it comes to the real world later on in life. If kids continue to do remote learning, they are going to grow up socially awkward.
  • All teacher was paper of the first group to available to get the vaccine and there was a study that show that kids are not likely to transmit the virus and pass it on. Also, school that are open have a great no contact and disinfecting system.
  • In school classes help parent that have to go to work and are not financially stable to get a babysitter to watch their elementary school child.

The other side was trying to make their case that school should not be open and the point they use was as such.

  • Kids get bully less since they are not in school in person but in respond to that bullying can happen through remote learning because you can send private messages through zoom.
  • Remote learning help student become independent but in respond to that student in elementary school need attention and assistant because they are very young and are easily distracted.
  • Remote learning stops the spread of corona virus in respond to that teacher were in the first group available to get the vaccine and kids are less like to pass the virus.

I feel like we have to take the step forward and start to do in school class because that is what seem best for the student especially the younger kids in elementary school and even on higher school level but more for the younger crowd but no size is correct in my opinion because both sides come with risk.

    Hello Justin,
    I like that you gave the view of both sides. I liked that you mentioned things like less bullying, student independence regarding their ability to structure their time for learning, and virus spreading. These are all valid reasons to stay at home and have online learning, but is it really what is best for them? Having the students in person just the same has pros and cons. I truly believe it is up to the individual.
