Answers
Answer:
Online classes were mentally hurting children
Explanation:
Most governments around the world have temporarily closed educational institutions in an attempt to reduce the spread of COVID-19.[2] As of 30 September 2020, approximately 1.077 billion learners are currently affected due to school closures in response to the pandemic. According to UNICEF monitoring, 53 countries are currently implementing nationwide closures and 27 are implementing local closures, impacting about 61.6 percent of the world's student population. 72 countries' schools are currently open.[3]
On 23 March 2020, Cambridge International Examinations (CIE) released a statement announcing the cancellation of Cambridge IGCSE, Cambridge O Level, Cambridge International AS & A Level, Cambridge AICE Diploma, and Cambridge Pre-U examinations for the May/June 2020 series across all countries.[4] International Baccalaureate exams have also been cancelled.[5] In addition, Advanced Placement Exams, SAT administrations, and ACT administrations have been moved online and cancelled.
School closures impact not only students, teachers, and families.[6] but have far-reaching economic and societal consequences.[7][8] [9] School closures in response to the pandemic have shed light on various social and economic issues, including student debt,[10] digital learning,[9] [11][12] food insecurity,[13] and homelessness,[14][15] as well as access to childcare,[16] health care,[17] housing,[18] internet,[19] and disability services.[20] The impact was more severe for disadvantaged children and their families, causing interrupted learning, compromised nutrition, childcare problems, and consequent economic cost to families who could not work.[21][22]
