Is the purpose behind mandatory eLearning so highschool students will learn digital lit skills? @ONeducation @Sflecce @CHogarthPC @maritstiles @mariarizzo @ToddSmithPC @RaymondChoPC @AODAontario #JustWondering https://twitter.com/ONeducation/status/1197589616309743616

I thought that when a student takes an online course, their objective is to learn the curriculum content of the course insteadRight? @ONeducation @Sflecce @CHogarthPC @maritstiles @mariarizzo @OECTAProv @tsuOECTA @SOSpecSvcsTCDSB

...& I'm sure that you know that students don't all learn in the same way, especially when it comes to #SpecialED students, right? #EquityAndInclusion #NoChildLeftBehind @AutismONT @LDatSchool @CentreforADHD @VOICE4DeafKids @OntFASDNetwork @EasterSealsON @CLOntario @AODAontario

#SpecialED students are already struggling b/c of yearly reductions in human supports in the classroom as a result of #ONFundingCuts and #IncreasedNeedsONClassrooms @TCDSB @RodPhillips01

Please hear us when we tell you that mandating even just 2 eLearning course credits for #SpecialED students can make the difference between #SuccessOrFailure #EmploymentOrUnemployment #StabilityOrHomelessness Not to mention the impact on their #MentalHealth and #WellBeing

Studies have shown that @ONtrainandstudy students lack academic skills and are struggling to cope with the demands of #PSE @RARC_TRG @HEQCO #unprepared Have you considered launching a new credit course that offers a #WorkforcePreparedness curriculum instead?

Please @Sflecce let students be taught the #ONCurriculum by #ONTeachers in supportive, inclusive, equitable classroom environments where goals & accommodations as set out in their #IEP will allow #SpecialED students to progress towards a #SuccessfulFuture4All #DigitalLearning
