A Coruña (Spain), Apr 18 (EFE).- Teaching and learning are facing a great challenge, with positive and negative aspects, during the coronavirus lockdown.SOUNDBITES OF SUSANA VÁZQUEZ, TEACHER VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE EUROPEAN FORUM ON EDUCATIONAL ADMINISTRATION-FEAE GALICIA:"For the first time, we have shared all our resources to the rest: sharing activities of all levels, in web sites such as Aula Galega or hundreds of solidarity initiative launched by teachers. I think this is positive. The digital divide exists, it's true, and it is necessary to consider what has been done until now. But maybe the most worrying thing about this crisis is that it's possible that the education divide is widening.""For college-educated families, it's easier to give support to their children now regarding school activities and learning. But for low-income families, this is more difficult because only the school gives their children the opportunity of integration and development."

A federal judge has ruled 114,000 homeless students in New York City are to have their day in court. Business Insider reports a judge has allowed a class-action lawsuit to advance to expedite the roll-out of WiFi to homeless shelters across the city. The suit was filed when homeless students were unable to access the internet in homeless shelters during periods of remote learning this year. Business Insider reports the city provided students with iPads with unlimited cellular data, but many have had trouble getting proper cell service. US District Judge Alison Nathan wrote in her opinion that homeless students are deprived of their right to education without internet connectivity. For as long as that deprivation exists, the City bears a duty...to furnish them with the means necessary for them to attend school. US District Judge Alison Nathan
Nashua, Oct 2 (EFE / EPA) .- The physical education teacher at the Nashua school, John Barry, began to build desks for his students after seeing, during online classes, that many of them had to study in the kitchen or on the bedroom floor. With the help of science teacher Dan Scarpeti, he came up with an inexpensive desk design and together they started making them. The two of them were soon joined by more teachers: Chris Gill, Cathy Belangerm, Bill Dubois, Rick Simoneau, Jeff Pellitier and John Lysik. Now that they have raised several thousand dollars, they plan to make desks for needy students. (Camera: CJ GUNTHER)SHOT LIST: TEACHERS MAKING DESKS FOR STUDENTS.
