This doesn’t surprise me at all online education is terrible as well. I once created a website called Remember the War, it went viral back in the day getting millions of uniques. I had teachers in US schools emailing me saying they were using it in their history classes. https://twitter.com/guardian/status/1306091539530223621
Students emailed me saying they never knew all of this had happened. We crowd funded to get the first v1 live & for the use of photography. We couldn’t keep the website live due to not being able to fund it. Ads were not allowed because we were showing concentration camps.
I have always believed online education especially around history needs a total revolution if we are going to teach properly. We can’t just allow our kids not know what mistakes our predecessors made.
