My kids, who both attend college, have told me and my wife multiple times that they "enjoy remote learning" only for us to turn around and hear them complain about pent up energy. I pity them for having to deal with a new (perhaps persistent) education dynamic and not be able to enjoy their college party years. On the other hand, we both feel that remote learning is the new normal and we as humans should find new ways to adapt to this bourgeoning learning method. >“I did not focus much on my school work; it was more motivating to just get things done rather than actually obtain any information.” Welcome to crushing your objectives ;)

> We as humans should find new ways to adapt to this bourgeoning learning method. Wish more people shared this mindset. A humans greatest strength is their ability to adapt.

Kids today (who a generation or two ago were considered adults) probably need to stay at home until they're in their 20s. If remote learning costs drop to account for not having to maintain Club Med-esque campuses, this should be a win for everyone.
