Week 4: A new spin on the framework

A new spin on the framework or better yet  said Flip Grid. I believe in a General Education school this concept is such an amazing idea. In fact I love it so much I am kind of jealous I did not have this growing up. It allows students to familiarize themselves with YouTube or other books basically anyway the can on a subject before it is ever taught to them. I think that's amazing because I remember if the first couple pages in a book didn’t captivate me I was done. This way you can find your own material that catches your attention and allows you to learn. 
Allowing the teacher to see who is really understanding it and one’s who are not can allow the teacher to spend more direct time teaching those who don’t quite get it. The amazing part is that every subject would change, some students are more interested in one subject than the other. Therefore not every lesson would be spent helping the same child over and over. It will allow the students to work together and help one another on sharing thoughts and ideas about a specific subject. Plus it allows the students to use their computers for technology rather than gaming.

In a perfect world this is such a great concept something new something interesting but unless a classroom can make it equal opportunities for all students I find it would be more unfair for the less fortunate. However if you can find a way to make it fair it would benefit the teachers and students. Leaving less boredom to the children listening to the same lectures over and over reading out of the same old stale books.
Unfortunately in the school setting I am in it would be just impossible to make it equal for all students. It is very rare that we even give homework because it is never brought back and for some kids it is even harder for the parents to help them with just because they are incapable themselves. 

My only question would be those schools that deal with children that are less privileged were mom, dad, or guardians aren’t home to help them if need be. Or even the case of the children who have no electronics at home. Unless schools provided computers for all the students, there is still the problem of the kids that don’t have wifi or even a safe place to do homework. Where the student might worry if they bring out a chrome book or an Ipad that it might get stolen by a stranger next to him or her seeing
