For the past two months, St. Josaphat School has been doing e-learning along with the rest of the country. Through Zoom meetings, google classroom discussions, and other online resources, teachers and students are still able to communicate and complete the school year. While not ideal, e-learning has proven to be a positive substitute for traditional in-classroom learning. While many students found the change from learning in desks to learning at their homes difficult, they have almost finished the school year.
E-learning has many benefits. When asked what one of the best parts of e-learning was, Caroline S in 7th grade said she enjoyed not having to rush out of her house every morning. With the extra time, students are able to find new hobbies and work on their skills. Charlie F in 5th grade has been working on his basketball skills by advantage of a basketball hoop in his alley. Considering no one can leave their houses, Lola T in 1st grade really enjoys spending time with her family. With her extra time, Nora D in fifth grade has been baking and exercising more.
