Sharing a Teacher via Technology
Two high schools in the Pittsylvania County Schools (really!) of Virginia have addressed a teacher vacancy in one school by using technology to share a teacher from the second high school. Although the article doesn’t address the technology used (the author keeps using the word “satellite”, but I can’t really believe they are using a satellite broadcasting system), the interesting part is that the teacher and the students seem to have quickly adjusted to the model.
I also thought it interesting that the most difficult problem for continuing into the future was making the schedules work across the two buildings.
