teachers in virtual spaces then the kids stay at home, the teachers stay<br>
in the staffroom (to be close to the coffee machines), and the school<br>
puts extra Moodle servers into the empty classrooms. Time becomes<br>
immaterial because classes may be held either synchronously (if you were<br>

other times. It sounds so good, I might just give it a try (joking...). <br>
