As the nationwide teacher shortage reaches crisis levels, states are scrambling to fill their classrooms. Texas is switching to four-day weeks, while Florida is asking veterans with no experience to step in. Some districts are now going virtual: remote teachers instructing classrooms full of students. We travel to one school in Georgia to see the advantages and disadvantages of this type of learning.

Man I never thought the education system would get more broken after the pandemic. I feel sorry for those students.
Nowadays, kids are horrible, and their parents are even worse. It's simply not worth dealing with the headache for such a small amount of money, from a teaching perspective.
In Republican States, the Governor and Republican Legislators seem to think it doesn't take much education to be an educator. Look at the big picture, the Governors need to do their job and let teachers do theirs. How will this affect kids down the line. America has been behind in Education for years. This will not end well.
There was a nationwide teachers shortage prior to the coronavirus pandemic and even after the pandemic.. the shortage exacerbated several factors contributed to the teachers shortage ( 1) burnout, (2) bullying, (3) violence, (4) low salary, (5) misbehaving kids, (6) disrespect, (7) undervalued, (8) fear of contracting coronavirus, etc. To combat the nationwide teachers shortage that is plaguing American schools they need to start paying these educators a living wage otherwise, many will leave the profession in pursuit of higher paying jobs.
I have mixed feelings about this because on the one hand I would not have to deal with bullies but on the other I would not have a teacher in front of me to help me or answer my questions
So has anyone connected all these teacher vacancies to the overload of school shootings here? No one wants their job to be their funeral parlor. This isn't a joke.
We can thank the GOP for this train wreck of our education system.
We have the technology why not use it…
introverts: Virtual
extroverts:in person
America is going into the CRAPPER!!!!!! WOW TRUMP IS A KUT!!!!! 🖕
If you are a an athlete and need a school or only care about sports.. than that’s one thing.. but why risk your child’s life to play a sport?
You don’t need to be in class. With technology today .. you don’t need to be in person.
Terminator 2 3D Battle Across Time told us this would happen. Cyberdyne is SkyNet & SkyNet’s hunger for human eradication is never satisfied.😳
It’s too dangerous to go to school. Why bother? Just go virtual.
It should be all virtual. No one wants to be shot .
Can they also hire incarcerated teachers to work as virtual educators, just like Ms Puff from “SpongeBob SquarePants”?
Hope parents/ politicians are starting to realize that no one wants to deal with Americans ferral kids.
I'm taking all my classes online 🙂 I can sleep longer and don't have to worry about getting to school 🙃
Education doesn't equal good character. Thats another myth sold to gullible educated people.
Lol put everything on the grid so it can be shut down 😂
So, the powers thar be have created this nonsense. Every generation gets a dose of the agenda. They say by 2050 all schooling will be at home virtual learning. More UN Rockefeller education. Created to keep you dumb, just enough to push buttons and flip switches.
Nothing can replace teacher physically present and teaching experience..in virtual teaching teacher-student bond would be missing.
..NBC NEWS? 🧑🏻💼 THANK!! YOU! FOR SHARING! RELIABLE INTEL INFORMATION! 🖥 FURTHERMORE,..VIRTUAL! LEARNING! IS AWESOME!!! 💻💯👏🤓❤
I see a lot of illegals have become teachers.
That’s what they get for treating teachers like sh*t all these years…seriously treat teachers as autonomous and respected not something you can use and discard
american schools are sad, almost last worldwide.
Don’t worry. They education be good.
just broadcast info wars fox and friends and a shyster evangelist … done
This nation stupidity is destroying it's youth
Very futuristic
You can have the best teacher, teaching one on one… but if the child doesn’t want to learn, then it won’t learn. Making education fun is key to teaching…
