Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Countries around the world are slashing education budgets.
Most schools for primary or secondary education usually teach standard curricula that are set by the ministry of education of the state for the country. And those curricula are usually designed for students’ age and grades. Students are expected to attend classes and learn the curriculum, and then advance to the next grade. However, many students have missed classes because of the Covid pandemic. In South Asia, where many schools have been closed longer than other regions, students have missed classes for as long as over half of the school years. They had longer school closures than other regions. Also, there are students who don’t have access to the online classes that substituted the in-person classes. Now, those students who missed classes for so long have accumulated learning deficits. Imagine some students have never had a chance to learn and use basic arithmetic, how will they study algebra or geometry? They may have a lifetime learning deficit. So, if schools resume classes according to the standard curricula, they may produce students who have serious difficulty catching up with the classes in the subsequent years.
What should be done?
Read the article and learn about the learning situations during and after the pandemic.
