Fictitious distance learning and expensive tutors: how do Ukrainian students learn in quarantine? (Strana / Ukraine-Nachrichten 09.04.20) [courtesy translation]
"The quarantine became a real problem for the students and their parents. The Ministry of Education of Ukraine declared that the coronavirus does not hinder the teaching process and everyone is moving to distance learning. (...)
However, as practice shows, not all schools have been able to set up distance learning. For many, it amounted to a banal dispatch of homework and lists of topics which the children should acquire independently.
The parents worry whether their children will ultimately be able to follow the curriculum. (...) The Strana website tried to find out how Ukrainian students study in quarantine." The original article (https://tinyurl.com/2p8eawkd) was published in Ukrainian on 28.03.20 on the strana.ua website. The website "Ukraine-Nachrichten" provided a German translation of the article on April 9th, 2020, translator Maria Watschko.
