Many schools closed their doors in march has covered 19 swept around the globe. 6 months since have posed unprecedented challenges students suddenly cut off from classmates and thrown into Remote Learning teachers navigating new technology and parents burdened with extra responsibilities. Schools have chosen to keep holding their Classes Online other students and teachers are making a joyous return to their classrooms as a new school year begins. They selling im happy that the school is a start and because i havent seen my friend and my teacher for a long time. Weve been locked in our houses and i forgot how the normal schooling looks. In the schools as a fundamental importance that theres nothing that can substitute schools so from our point of view this is a huge choice to reopen our gates to our 1200 pupils. But the reopening is also a major safety concern how to bring millions of children and teachers back into schools or keeping them safe from the virus. As some schools struggle to reopen to make up for lost time others remain completely empty the picture varies greatly between countries as our correspondents around the world can explain. In uganda capito com Public Schools remain closed what you see here is a reflection of whats happening across the country right from elementary level to University Level classes remain closed the government is not sure when to reopen schools now especially with the rising cases of course 1000. 00 now many teachers of already lost their jobs while youre on the government try to introduce lessons of radio and television but sustaining that became a challenge so many families have already described 2020 as the last academic year. Students are back in school throughout the whole of china including mohan where the epidemic has started its students need to wear masks there are social distancing measures staggered schedules but otherwise schools are supposed to go back to their normal curriculum here in beirut the capital of lebanon they call the 1000 pandemic is not the only crisis that faces the educational system right behind me is an exhibit of a school out of 160 that were totally destroyed or damaged due to the colossal badal where the explosion why the school here is only a few days away the destruction that was caused by the shock waves that explosion aggravated the calamity on residents already suffering from an unprecedented economic crisis. The German Government is ruling out a 2nd lockdown confident that the current testing tracing and tracking capacities will be enough to contain the current levels of corona outbreaks in the absence of a tangible Health Crisis and with the economy recovering faster than expected theres now an all out debate here in germany over whether the government wasnt too cautious in the 1st place a loud minority has been taking to the streets over this nationwide schools remain open but when it comes to the question which conditions like must apply that still regional patchwork. In march the kenyan government closed schools and colleges nationwide a certain measure that affected 17000000 learners across the country including among tribal communities as the w. C. Reports. 2020 was the beginning of an exacting new chapter to vincent too Little High School but in mid march in response to cope with maintaining the kenyan government closed all schools including Higher Education the measure disrupted the lives of nearly 17000000 students across the country for 16 year old to little its meant hiding his family cuttle out in the wild rather than seeing an indication. That one of us was really excited to join his school because ive never been to boarding school. But i was frustrated when i was told schools would be closed and you know i miss the interaction with students and sharing ideas school with the school. Long Distance Learning cops and other challenges to lead to simply doesnt have enough time for studying. And i dont know its just wake up look after cup in 2000 you know and you cant concentrate when you try to study so much you fall asleep like that if you like on a day like this classroom would be your boss and students for children even more until the kenyan government because of the 20 twentieths. Due to the coronavirus but for these musee Community One qualified teacher is all that they have. 22 year old danny my side he usually teaches near the tanzanian border but now he has taken to for the clearing home. One of your living in a Community Like bees they know saw and saw is a teacher and we have to have the kids otherwise the kids will miss our old form crossing so. But experts believe theres a lot of walk to be done before schools can sift through the reopening kenya. I think the fuss point to g. N. D. Be training teachers once weve done the training then we need to look at our infrastructure for example if all a building was able to accommodate a group of 20 goes how can we use it and outcome what its less goes to ennoble us to do social distancing. For now schools remain closed for the foreseeable future. But its yet another day of hiding cuttle for too little counting down the days until hes able to resume his dream of an indication that perhaps over time could change his life so lets speak to david evans whos an economist with the center for Global Development david at these clothes is likely to have a lasting effects for countries like kenya these are likely to have enormous implications for these students lives and for the country as a whole these kids arent learning a lot of them have parents whove lost works of the students are working and the longer theyre out of school the less likely they are to come back to school once they reopen i dont lessons especially will be working in the ask why do i have to go back to school and whats worse during the a ball a crisis in sierra leone another example of a long Term School Closure School Closures led to a sharp increase in adolescent pregnancy so these can really be devastating to students you have something weve talked about earlier this week on the program that i limiting the amount of encounters that children and young people have with the authorities can cause all sorts of problems we talk about africa but globally children are missing out on education all over the world. Its absolutely true at the height of the epidemic more than 1500000000 students around the world are out of school its an unimaginable number and even though some are coming back now there are many that still remain out a lot of kids dont have access to Good Information Technology in low and middle Income Countries fewer than a quarter of homes have access to the internet and so imagining delivering effective Online Learning effective Distance Learning is just impossible and that kids who lack access the most of course are the most vulnerable kids in the 1st place so should countries be rushing to reopen schools even though there is always that risk that children are going to go home and theyre going to get coronavirus too and all of them a Vulnerable Person countries need to keep children and teachers safe but Primary School children are the least able to learn remotely and so getting them back to School Safely needs to be the highest priority and furthermore what countries like kenya and others need to do is when these students come back invest in special efforts to make sure the most vulnerable kids make it back to the classroom and are able to have a catch up so they can get back on track so that there are starting a whole year behind have you seen any approaches around the way to the riffing of schools they have thought yes theyre getting that right so relatively few countries especially in low and middle Income Countries are are really doing this you know and so its still still an open game but we what we do see that some countries are you know making sure that kids are in school at least for a couple of days so that you can reduce the capacity in a classroom so you can have half as many kids in the classroom on a given days you can have social distancing and keep those kids separate but at least have 22 and a half days for kind of face to face and the teacher the heavens from the sense of i would have element thank you so much for bringing us up to date thank you. And now its time for your questions to our science correspondent derrick williams. Just kovac 19 transmission change depending on whether its in that or fatah try one of the great hopes last winter here in the Northern Hemisphere back in february and march that covert 1000 would prove to be seasonal hasnt hasnt really panned out and in the last months a lot of researchers have come out with with often conflicting messages about about where and how environmental factors are influencing the spread of the disease any direct links between al gore temperatures and transmission of the virus seem to still be pretty pretty tenuous to me but increasingly researchers are coming to a more united conclusion that the humidity the amount of moisture in the air could be playing a pretty big role in the spread of sars co 2 both both indoors and out on the evidence is known thing that dry air makes the virus spread more rapidly one new study out of australia claims that when a relative humidity falls just one percent in 1000 cases could rise by 7 to 8 percent the explanation on offer is this moisture air causes the aerosols and droplets that an infected person coughs out to grow larger as they absorb water vapor which makes them sink to the ground found but when the air is dry the opposite happens then the virus containing droplets shrink as their moisture is absorbed by the surrounding air that makes them lighter and more likely to drift around at head level and be inhaled by someone else another for. Actor that could well be playing a role when the air is dry as that it also dries out your nasal passages and theyre your 1st line of defense im against airborne pathogens like like sars co 2 when they dry up it also makes it easier for those pathogens to gain a foothold. Derek williams that muscle from this colleague 19 special until next time take that. Largest piece of Field Research point. Despite the fears and uncertainties of the month month month demick has been live or of innovation. Ushered in a new solution which. Is the. Progress. Along 120 me injured. To the point of strong opinions clear positions from International Perspectives. This information is going viral demick has given a boost to conspiracy theories like those of q one not how dangerous our conspiracy theories thats our topic on to the point showing us. To the point of. The 60 minutes on the t w. E life on earth little coming to an end. But try to get a coincidence. That tampa previously said. It was just the chemistry lab. Where the improbable. Growth was the creation of our solar system with our planet is a bit like winning the lottery but there is a little bit you know. What is earth the word you need start september 18th on t. W. Rural. What a great novelty it was to work from home for the 1st time to be able to plonk yourself on the sofa open up your laptop and just get down to business but it didnt take long for the reality of the situation to sink in for many of us the coronavirus pandemic has changed our professional day today into something thats barely recognizable from before the world of work 2020 thats our topic today here on made welcome along so we all worry about our jobs in these Uncertain Times but the many refugees whove come to germany in recent years have had a different set of worries for a start theyve often arrived empty handed and had to find work in a completely strange environment but for some things change very quickly 4 years 4 years ago our reporter mario hooter met 2 refugees from syria who found work and a Parcel Sorting Center in my active we met with them again recently one of them is still working at. Its another busy day at work for honest im not going to commit to a 3rd of the workforce at this parcel sorting office in magdeburg are refugees like honest who is from syria hes now responsible for 14 people and says there are Career Opportunities for everyone here. And none its just. That if you show you have the potential to get up then you can really go far here and i will get off that back in 2016 on a starter not putting parcels under conveyor belts his 1st job in germany in damascus hed been studying for an engineering degree before the civil war forced him to flee the country. All the young people with my old school they must go to the military and we dont want to go and kill other people so thats why i decided to leave working alongside him back then was fellow syrian gaius diop 4 years on hes moved on from the Parcel Sorting Center and now has better working hours. Guy and no more night shifts. Formerly the owner of a phone shop in syria hes now set up his own business in germany a car repair workshop called dr or alto it offers amateur car mechanics the use of car lifts and tools and he has plans for expansion his own and of us i want to set up a 2nd shop offering express services which. Is like a tire change in 10 minutes or an oil change in 10 minutes we fix it vital but there are obstacles in his way not least the bureaucracy he still only has a temporary residence permit which is bad for business. Thats. Its really difficult i had a lot of ideas for my workshop and bought everything myself. Except for 5000 euros from the job center so i asked all the banks for a loan but they said no. Bank. I know. Why because you dont have german citizenship or permanent residence permit. Thats the. Guy a story all because determined to keep on investing and ideally get that german citizenship. Now hes very settled in monte borg and says he no longer sees a future for himself in syria. In the sense i mean in germany for 6 years now. Syria is a total disaster theres no water or electricity its really tough. But now my family and i have everything we need. Its better here. After leaving syria 6 years ago he was able to bring his family over to join him in germany his youngest daughter who was born here. Shes now 4 years old. She and her brothers have grown up bilingual. I only have a couple of friends he speak at that at school i mainly speak german. But the die offs see germany as their new home even if theyve not always enjoyed a warm welcome they have encountered hostility but are reluctant to talk about it preferring to tell us about relations with their neighbors. But it would take time for distance at 1st but thats all changed for the better now. Photos from the past. Most of their old friends have left syria and now live all across europe but the dire aabs have at least been able to stay together. Still thinks about syria a lot. Doesnt know thats what it looks like now and this is in damascus deciding to make the perilous journey to europe was not easy in front of our mind you could say ok all hope is lost and ill end up killing myself here im sure of a christening some people do think that but if you do have a small bit of hope then you say i have to get out. Which most want us to. Harness his own journey took him across 8 countries hes not seen his parents or his younger brothers and sisters for years. And thats. Got mended so you just cant help thinking about syria. But honest does find ways of getting his mind off the worry so it is hard work which will hopefully also see him continue his rise through the ranks at the moment to book sorting office. And good luck to him now Office Workers make up half of germanys workforce and its hard to imagine a time without them but how long have offices existed here on earth invented them and will they still be with us far into the future and raise no house has the answer. The office past present and future. Offices have been around for a long time in ancient rome parchment scrolls along with the wooden or bronze tablets were kept in them during the middle ages scribes would copy out texts from the bible in offices in the 17th century lawyers Civil Servants and Business People set up offices in cities such as amsterdam london and paris. Offices were exclusively for work separate rooms that allowed people to work alone and undisturbed. Open plan offices emerged in the 20th century u. S. Architect Frank Lloyd Wright designed a record setting office block in which 250 people worked in one room. Office buildings are intended to symbolize wealth and power but designed to maximize efficiency and productivity a production line for paper work. Open plan offices are not well liked nowadays in germany theyre often noisy and dark workers feel crown turned constantly observed by bosses and coworkers will the pandemic mean the end for the office half of german Office Workers have been working from home to reduce the risk of infection. This saves time normally spent commuting to work and can better combine work and family some 77 percent of people whove tried it say they enjoy working from home. They might miss being together with their colleagues but the advantages outweigh the disadvantages the office of the future might start to look a lot like home. Absolutely nothing against my marvelous colleagues here mate but working from home does have its advantages that all some things you can do that might be frowned upon and a normal workplace as our very own olaf creek can testify. More good morning. Morning so whats on the agenda today. Very interesting. Yes very interesting. Ok today im going to play a very ingenious a very ingenious opening. To. My nights goes that. You have a just yes i was going i think thats a really good idea we should definitely do it that way yes definitely.

More good morning. Morning so whats on the agenda today. Very interesting. Yes very interesting. Ok today im going to play a very ingenious a very ingenious opening. To. My nights goes that. You have a just yes i was going i think thats a really good idea we should definitely do it that way yes definitely. Say something on the chat show that you know that Something Interesting<\/a> even if you dont really know what its all about i dont always know. Yeah yes lets do it was drunk right. Check. In. Here is of all the while theres so many things to consider listen on sui have to be more involved and. Get things in order to get its also about taking these initiatives. I think we have to get you know involved in any. Close ones and sometimes their ideas dry as dust. Is what we should make a show about food about ads what do you think about that right. Ya what are. Feeling oh yes i agree. Months from elsewhere else apart from a chat do you get a chance to give god a break and do something nice for yourself. Once it might screw to some to. A very yes i know if anyone asked you to show on your camera. Song its gonna come it struck. Very serious. Yes thats a very interesting topic that remembers and we should i think about that definitely. Very nice. Well that is to feed it and when it gets to be too much go offline you can tell them no internet no exceptions nothing you have to take care of your brakes yourself up a month or so and home Office Working<\/a> from home has plenty of advantages which becomes the longer you dont have to travel to work you dont need to wear suit last year and if i got a great chance got so much done lots of great new ideas new concepts super good classes. Ive certainly got a lot on opposite. Cook to deal with i just have to empty the washing machine. Gun thats exactly what we do take care we talk again tomorrow good bye everyone. Point yes and now the camera really should be off. So watch that webcam for some of us this is all we have a wanted flexible workplaces and Flexible Working<\/a> hours before the coronavirus working from home was the big exception but now it is single strike that so changed that Business School<\/a> in New York University<\/a> of analyze the work of more than 3000000 people around the world before the pandemic and now they found that on average people working from home tend to work one hour longer per day meetings usually have more participants than they did before the crisis and theyre also more of them but on the up side meetings are on average shorter. The pandemic has accelerated digitalisation more than you. Put together suddenly digital processes they werent even considered before become possible but digital work during the Coronavirus Crisis<\/a> has exposed a real lack of skilled workers in the area now looking for professional as you can drive digitalisation.

Employees to have more time to use public transport or right bikes rather than cars they also eat less processed food and in general have a more sustainable lifestyle that something companies can encourage.

We have a 20 kilometer trip to contest to pick up goods for a customer in france. Stuff on strike across europe begins at home in romania his family have come along to help load up his own luggage and food for the journey for the next few weeks his truck will be his home. Even after 6 years in the job the farewells dont get any easier. Stephon has completed hundreds of trips in that time but this one is special. This will be his 1st tour since the introduction of stricter regulations for Truck Drivers<\/a> in the e. U. He and his colleagues are now required to return home every 3 or 4 weeks plus they have to spend the rest breaks in hotels instead of car parks as has been the case until now the aim is to ensure fair competition while improving working conditions especially for those from Eastern Europe<\/a> but he says the new rules while well intentioned go too far.

The families there and increase the number of people. Who remain yet stephanie cant really say what the future holds tonight at least he wont be making it across the border into hungary but the idea of being able to be on the road for a maximum of 4 weeks at a time leaves him feeling very uneasy each.
