Hello everyone, hope you are doing well. I work as IT at a Higher Education uni in London. (so Bachelor and Master degree in Art & Design Fashion, Business and Styling).
And this common thread among our students keeps coming up, and they are using phrases such as the new normal and applying it to their education. Meaning they wish to be educated from Home, and most of them are living in dorm rooms in London. And chose to come to the school when they wish to. Which creates difficulties and a rift between students on site and students on Zoom. We are still doing all our classes as hybrid (both online and in school) this is mainly intended for students who are abroad in their home countries. (Such as Chinese, Ukrainian and Russian students and other countries that local laws and circumstances prohibit them from traveling)
So I wanted to start a discussion here and ask. Do you think the same WFH flexibility working professionals have should apply to students in Education?
If yes, why?
I personally think (if the school/university) is a physical location and it is safe to attend class it should be mandatory. Especially when I put it in context of the following issues that come up:
-early morning classes are usually attended online;
-students decide to go on holiday mid term and attend online from the beach house (i have multiple examples of this actually happening).
-students accusing the University of being archaic and refusing to participate in the New Normal
I apologies if this is not the correct subreddit for this topic, let me know if another place might be more suitable.
