My wife is a teacher and her Texas district is going to a flipped classroom next year. Basically the kids are to learn at home and come to school to do homework. The parents are to supervise learning and the teachers supervise homework.
Great scam. Lets the district get rid of experienced teachers (who need them, the kids LEARN at home) and kids that fail are the parent’s fault — until they wait a few years to ask for extra money to reverse the process.
And parents are going to go along with this? They’ll go to their jobs during the day and at night they’ll do what the teacher should be doing during the day?
Good luck with that. Parents are going to figure out pretty quickly that if they are the ones who are going to do the heavy lifting at home, they certainly aren’t going to pay taxes to support teachers who are going to “supervise homework.”
They might as well pull their kids out and homeschool them.
