Children want to make progress. They crave achievement—even if they do not appear to be motivated—provided that the basic levels of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs are satisfied. The inequities in society grow worse for each day that children lack “flex” environments that are blended (online and face-to-face) that help them make progress seamlessly, whether they are in in-person or remote setups.
Unlike ever before, it is becoming surprisingly simple to set up a Flex blended-learning model. In a Flex model, caring teachers lead discussions, provide individual coaching, and oversee the online instruction.
Expect to see thousands of schools, micro-schools, and homeschool co-ops offering Flex schooling this year. In this show, we’ll discuss how the four building blocks of a blended learning arc provide the backbone for a Flex classroom and are increasingly within the grasp of schools and parents.
