A few years ago our district changed to an online attendance system, so two times a day teachers were expected to log in, do online attendance and then submit and go on with their day. No problem right?
Nope.
Don’t get me wrong, the district sent out emails, they sent out videos, they gave warning and prepared everyone as best they could. But here’s the thing, working in the schools, I watched as many, many teachers struggled. Some normally never turned on their district laptops let alone logged into a system. So where did we go wrong?
