Concurrent teaching as conceived by central office seems to have no relationship to actual classroom instruction in many classes at TC.  It assumes that all classes are lecture-based and teacher-centered.  Cameras make no difference in classes that are taught now online centered on student interaction and teacher interventions with non-participating students via chats and verbal cajoling.  Students will lose engagement when they are asynchronous relative to a lesson in which teacher attention is undivided on what is happening online - and then now all-virtual students will spend all their time and concurrent students are going to spend half their week under those circumstances.

Inadequate Classroom Air Exchange Testing

We are trying to substitute plexiglass and distancing in an enclosed space for testing and modeling of air exchange in classrooms that the director of facilities has told us we should not open the windows in.   The series of fire alarms at TC a year ago prompted by lingering smoke accumulating in classrooms from work being performed the outside show be driving concern about the inadequacy of a PPE-only plan in enclosed spaces due to how slow the rate of air exchange is in TC classrooms.  The answer "our HVAC system is being updated and performs as it is designed to" does not provide the information that we need to make decisions about risk exposure for faculty or students.

The main issue I see with the current model is many students do not focus on the class during class time. Also, lack of facilities at home. If some parents want to have students come in to resolve these issues, They could come to the school and have some sort of monitoring and still attend virtual school, but without distractions and with better internet, theoretically. While many teachers and those students who do fine at home could remain there.
