Billionaire Harvard alum makes admission over school's next step

One of the options to continue education while we are still experiencing the threat of the COVID-19 is to bring education to online platforms. With the use of computers and internet connection, teachers and students can conduct classes while staying at home. This is a great alternative to traditional frontal classes as it ensures absolute social distancing which is necessary to prevent the spread of the disease. The rapid spread of the Coronavirus, also known as COVID-19, in many countries caused widespread school closure around the world to mitigate the development of a full-blown pandemic. This abrupt decision saved lives as it protected people from getting infected and continues to prevent more possible damages of the pandemic. However, global school closure greatly affects the education sector causing delays in classes and changes in the education system. Students who have done the HSC examination (10 + 2) from the Board of Education accredited with Science, Arts, or Commerce stream can be chosen. The minimum cut-off that candidates must have varies from year to year. The disadvantage of modular learning system is that parents need to take more of the responsibility in helping their children to understand the lessons. This worries some parents especially those who have limited education as they may not be able to provide proper education to their children. On a news interview in Asia, a father said "It's okay if my child is still in kinder or elementary but she is now in High School. How can I help her if I only finished grade 4?" The course takes place in the Arts stream hence saves the future in a major way as the stream has more career options than any other stream available. While students who choose science or e-commerce streams are bound to some area of employment, art students can go anywhere in the professional world. The course is available on a regular and long-distance basis. School closure and changes in the education system caused significant impacts on families. Many families especially in low-income countries rely on schools not only for education but for food and childcare. Some schools provide free meals for their students which are taken advantage by parents who are in poverty. Hence, school closure causes hunger to millions of children across the world. In addition, many parents are forced to leave their work as they have to take care of their young children which affects the family's income. Another alternative to traditional classes is modular learning systems in which teachers provide printed instructional materials with activity pages to test the students' understanding. This also applies social distancing as teachers will spend limited time with their students. Teachers will only need to deliver the modules and assess the students at the end of every term or course. No need to gather all of the students in a crowd which can spread the disease.<img src="https://c0.wallpaperflare.com/preview/506/369/211/training-course-teacher-woman.jpg"; style="max-width:450px;float:right;padding:10px 0px 10px 10px;border:0px;" alt="" />
