Two Hours a day for academics? One imagines the freak out that sort of thinking inspires at school districts across the country.
But for those who are hoping some new way of schooling comes along, this as discussed below, is certainly one dynamic change being explored.
The child care warehousing of children currently undergirds the school building model where multiple functions of child well being are addressed, along with learning.
This 2 hour model fills the rest of the “non academic” day with plenty of activities and functions. So it fits the current educational model somewhat. But also implies room for further changes.
Is this what “an amazing AI tutor in every mobile device” portends? We can’t know today, but 2 hr Learning gives us a basis for imagining coming alternatives to the status quo.
