Ms. Betsy DeVos, secretary of education for the Trump administration, is an outspoken advocate and advocate for the demise of the school and the development of home education.

The leading role of teachers in the teaching-learning processes is intended to be replaced by specialized videos, tutorials or standardized classes to see and learn at home sold or downloadable free from the servers of the major transnational technology; and from that perspective, the school classroom is reconfigured on the screen of a computer located in the bedroom or living room of our home.
