Education, Interrupted
Instrueret af Aisha Sultan44 mDocumentary, Short
Education, Interrupted tells the story of the unprecedented disruption in schooling caused by the coronavirus pandemic, through the eyes of Tyra Johnson, a single mother raising her three children in one of the poorest zip codes in the country. Veteran journalist Aisha Sultan followed Tyra for two years, through the ups and downs of trying to home-school her children during the COVID pandemic. Tyra's family faced overwhelming odds - an 18-month absence from in-person schooling, an unexpected pregnancy, the death of her partner, and job loss. Still, Tyra remained devoted to keeping up with her children's education while still being the best parent she could. The film shows Tyra's efforts to have her children meet the same educational standards that would be expected of them during in-school learning. When the results of their evaluative tests come back, the gap between expectation and reality is revealed. Education, Interrupted examines these central questions: What are the consequences of missing so many months of formal education during children's foundational and critical years for literacy development? Will students be able to regain this ground? Or will they join the countless children whose opportunities will be shortchanged long after the pandemic has ended? And can a parent's relentless dedication and effort enough to overcome the setbacks created by a pandemic that exacerbated existing inequities and devastated communities around the world? Also offering a lens into how young children processed and navigated sudden changes over the course of the pandemic, Education, Interrupted is a vital document both of a specific time, and the challenges that have and continue to be faced by under-resourced schools and communities.
