As we move into the second agonizing month of being stuck at home due to COVID-19, I was glad to see that my daughter's school here in Ontario, Canada was taking the steps to setup online learning via Google Classroom. Why Google Classroom, I don't know but I am guessing it was the natural fit for her classroom EdTech environment built around Chromebooks. However, the joy was short lived when I received an email from the school informing me that my Son, who is in kindergarten at the same school, will also be using Google Classroom for his online learning. Now at this point you might be wondering why my joy was short lived when both kids are due to continue their schoolwork from home - it was because I only had one Chromebook at home which now needed to be shared between a kindergartner and a fourth-grader (only parents with more than one kid will get it).
