转: 卑诗省为K-12 年级孩子提供Zoom网上学习详情
文 Will
卑诗省教育厅2020年4月1日宣布，省教育工作者将拥有一个易于使用的视频会议和协作平台，让他们能在因为防止新型冠状病毒（COVID-19）的传播而需要暂停课堂学习期间，与学生进行远距离交流。
省教育厅已为卑诗省所有K-12公立及私立学校申请并取得了获资助的Zoom使用权。这将为选择使用此平台的教育工作者提供共同的使用权限，从而为他们提供更多与学生、家长进行沟通的渠道。
每所学校可根据学生的需要，提供适当的持续学习机会，其中的一些选项包括网上学习工具、资源包、或由教师将作业以电子邮件发送、或以邮寄方式寄给家长。对于选择提供网上学习的教育工作者，Zoom为他们提供了一个通用﹑一致的平台，便于他们与学生交流及分享课程。
为保障学生的安全与私隐，该许可协议符合卑诗省的《资讯自由及私隐保护法》（FOIPPA），学校技术管理员能控制权限及特权，同时禁用不必要、或不合适的功能。Zoom会为学生提供一个特定的网址，让学生毋需使用个人帐户即可登入虚拟教室。加拿大给相关的Zoom伺服器增设了加密功能，是一个安全的学习平台。
教育工作者将于本月通过其所属教育局获得使用Zoom的权限，以及有关如何使用该软件的简要说明。
虽然教师和学校将肩负继续学习的主要责任，但卑诗省政府亦已于2020年3月27日启动了卑诗持续学习计划(Keep Learning BC) www.openschool.bc.ca/keeplearning。在这个集中资源的平台上，各个家庭可找到日常教育活动的建议，并链接到免费学习资源、如何帮助子女学习，以及如何确保他们在家中的身心健康。网站将定期加入新资源及进行及时更新。截至2020年3月31日，已有超过136,693人使用卑诗持续学习计划网站，即平均每天有168,949人。
由于有许多学生在网上学习时会遇到挑战，因此学校已获允许，寻找适合个别学生需求及其所在社区情况的持续学习的其他替代方法。部分校区或能安排借用电脑或其他设备，以支援学生在家中学习。

Provincial State of Emergency;
Zoom for K-12; Minister of State for Child Care Is Here to Help
As B.C. Premier John Horgan has announced that, the B.C. government formally extended the provincial state of emergency to April 14, 2020, educators will have an easy-to-use video-conferencing and collaboration platform to communicate remotely with their students while in-class learning is suspended to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
The Ministry of Education has secured and funded licences for the application Zoom for all K-12 public and independent schools in B.C. This will allow consistent access for educators who choose to use it, giving them more ways to communicate with students and parents.
Continued learning will vary for each school depending on the needs of students. Some options include online learning tools and/or resource packages or assignments emailed or mailed from teachers to parents. For educators who choose to offer online learning, Zoom gives them a common, consistent platform to communicate and share lessons with their students.
To ensure safety and privacy for students, the licensing agreement complies with B.C.’s Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. School technology administrators can control permissions and privileges, while disabling features that are unnecessary or inappropriate. Students will be given a unique website address, so they can access their virtual classroom without needing an individual account. The Zoom server will be based in Canada, with added encryption so it is a safe platform to learn.
Educators will receive access to Zoom through their school districts this month, along with simple instructions about how to use the software.
While teachers and schools will have primary responsibility for continuous learning, government also launched Keep Learning BC on March 27, 2020: www.openschool.bc.ca/keeplearning
This is a central place where families can find ideas for everyday educational activities, links to free learning resources, as well as how to help children learn and how to ensure their well-being while they are at home. The websites will be updated on a regular basis with new materials. As of March 31, 2020, more than 136,000 visitors have accessed the Keep Learning BC website – an average of 33,786 a day.
Since there are many students who will have challenges working online, schools have also been directed to look at alternative approaches for continued learning that will fit with the individual needs and circumstances of their communities. Some school districts may also loan computer equipment or devices to support students while they learn from home.
Quick Fact:
A new ministerial order under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act enables the broader use of communications tools during the pandemic.
