Parents need more support just like the student, if Mom is upset because she doesn't understand our system, the student doesn't get the help, that they need.

# data[].attributes.body
Students who engage are for the most part successful and motivated! Those who regularly don't come to live sessions cannot fully engage in ALL of the differentiated ways of learning in addition to OLS. They don't have the extent of cognitive growth or mental engagement that students who regularly attend do. Required attendance in live class would be a great motivator as well as provide better accountability for students & LCs. There will always be exceptions due to families who are experiencing difficult life circumstances, but this would provide a motivation for engagement and cognitive growth.

How students need to be supported more

# data[].attributes.body
we need more resources and try to make learning.

# data[].attributes.body
This study only shows data from a small % of families. Those families that participated might be more likely to be more engaged in their student's learning. We're missing a huge demographic in the study. Reality.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes to give more resources and try to make learning fun!

# data[].attributes.body
This study only evaluated perceptions. Perception is opinion. It should have included a section on LC practices. Specifically, how often do LCs check grades? What is the student's attendance in CC?

# data[].attributes.body
Attendance needs to be a requirement which is upheld! This is the only way for direct instruction to take place and the only way for engagement to be possible. Parents need more support with the platform so they are able to support from home.

# data[].attributes.body
Student time management skills or lack there of sticks out to me. I need to research how to help them with this skill.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that more engagement is necessary. There should be more opportunities for LC's and students to engage in personalized learning together.

# data[].attributes.body
Our Elementary students need lots of parent support. Our students that have more parent support at home are more successful. I think the parents are also afraid to ask for support.

Since we don't make students appear on camera and use the mic, there is a certain level of accountability lost. This reflects in the data. I understand why we don't, but it is a challenge we may not win at the same time being a hurdle to our success.

Making sure that we create an environment that is open and welcoming so students who need help feel comfortable asking is super important. So that we know how to support them.

# data[].attributes.body
Help students with time management and reach out to LC's & Students a LOT! More one on one time in the BOR if possible.

INDLS can learn from this study in a few ways. One way would be to learn more about how we can help the students who need more support with engagement. We can also help by having more resources to teach students time management. I will relate online to to college when Im speaking with parents new to online school. It takes time for students to adjust.

The online format adheres to students that may be more introverted then in person students.
