Covid Pandemic Highlights Value of Transportation Techs

(NewsUSA) – The Covid-19 pandemic has driven education for children

of all ages from school to home, and often a hybrid of both. As remote
learning stretches into the new school year in many areas, parents are
worried, with parents of young children especially concerned about
writing.More than half of parents of young children (54 percent) say that
"writing is the area of greatest concern," in terms of remote learning,
according to a survey conducted by Learning Without Tears (LWT), a
company that has been providing writing and other educational materials to parents and teachers for
more than 40 years.Parents faced with remote learning want to know how to develop and improve their
children’s handwriting without the guidance of a teacher in a classroom setting."Whether you are
employed outside the home, or a stay-at-home parent, remote learning is challenging. Some subjects,
like handwriting, are particularly difficult without a teacher’s direct instruction, which creates a lot of angst
at home," says Lana Dugdale, from Southborough, MA, mother of three young kids, including a rising
first-grader.LWT is meeting the home-based learning challenges with improved and innovative updates to
its classic and proven products."It’s clear now that too many students were left behind as the country
moved to distance learning," says Terry Nealon, CEO of Learning Without Tears."During a child’s
elementary years, any gap in learning can result in setbacks that impact that student for the rest of his/her
life. Learning Without Tears has always focused on improving learning outcomes; we don’t have to accept
those gaps."To enhance remote learning, families can choose from a range both digital and print
resources: activity books geared towards various elementary school grades, including books on letters
and numbers, printing, and cursive, as well as keyboarding programs. In addition, with sharing materials
out and hand sanitizer in, individual manipulative packs for hands-on learning are the ideal solution for
single student use in the classroom, or for parents opting for homeschooling in small groups or
pods.Need more handwriting resources? There’s an app for that. Designed to help young children learn
the correct way to form letters and numbers and to show parents how to support that learning, LWT has
launched "Wet, Dry, Try," for use on an iPad. With over four hours of instruction and technology that
identifies individual student needs, the app provides a multisensory approach, with customized audio
instructions that give teachers a way to monitor student progress remotely, when they can’t be in
school.Learning loss during school shutdown has parents, teachers, and kids worried, stressed, and
looking for solutions, and LWT resources are improving this unsettled situation. So teachers can be as
effective remotely as they are in the classroom, LWT’s +Live Insights – its platform that brings all of its
solutions together for in-school, at-home, and hybrid teaching – facilitates crucial data-driven
individualized student instruction, as well as "whole class" gallery approach that was typical of remote
teaching in the spring.The only thing certain about back-to-school this year, is its uncertainty.
