my quarantine routines After my first notebook of quarantine routines, I've explored only the edges of my routines, fixing the starting point and the ending point. Wake up at last at 8 am and go to sleep at 22 to reserve 1 hour to read something. The first week I didn't follow strictly my new routines. Yes, your Honour, I recognize I'm lazy but I have some reasons: 3 kids, my wife and a house to take care. With my wife, we taking care of the three kids and it's complicated. Here in Italy for the last seven weeks, the schools have been closed. The govern, the teachers and the manager are completely unprepared to this. Every school, in the last years, waste money on different platforms, not updated and not conceived to support distance learning. On this, we should add decades of poor selection of the teachers, no training course and the typical approach to the technology of the Italian Schools. We are used to teaching our children exactly how our parents sixty years ago, in the same buildings with the same media: books and blackboards. I'm furious, ok to be rightful we need to admit that some schools some teacher are good, they updated themselves, but the vast majority of our school system is in a prehistoric age, due to the lack of resources and the unionization of the public sector. The union prefered to lower the level instead of trying different approaches. For example my elder son, he's attending the last year of a secondary school in the last 7 weeks has no contact with his English teacher, this is unacceptable. I'm searching now a teacher on Italky to help him to recover a little bit and reach a minimum level of teaching. There're other aspects that are totally underestimated even by the good teachers in this situation. The distance teaching is completely different, a few teachers are trying to explain some topics, others provide written explanation and avoiding interactions. I'm not an expert when I face a new thing, first I search, I study, I adapt. I'm sorry but I don't see this, even in the good teachers. Ok, this is a long discussion and I will continue this.
