The Canadian province of Ontario intends to make online education part of school education
The Ontario Ministry of Education is discussing legislation that would allow parents to enrol their children on remote learning programmes when the coronavirus epidemic ends.
Additionally, if passed, the bill would also require school boards to provide online education for students during heavy snowfalls. The law may come into force by the 2022/2023 school year.
However, teachers' unions view the bill with distrust, and opponents of the law include Harvey Bischof, the president of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation (OSSTF). Bischof believes that transferring children to online education will fail to create a comprehensive educational environment and ultimately reduce education quality.
Nevertheless, online classes will be the best, and almost the only way for children with particular health needs to get an education. It's also a chance for those who live in remote areas and can't make the daily commute to school. Ontario's Minister of Education, Stephen Lecce, believes that different children have varying educational requirements, and remote learning is a way to meet these needs. For example, Lecce said some students do better when they study remotely than when they learn offline.
