  Technology won't solve the fundamental problem that people are generally more engaged and focused when they're physically proximal.

  It’s almost entirely due to cultural barriers. Teachers don’t want to do remote and neither do students. A lot of students want to socialize in person and a lot of teachers are extroverts. Put both in a very anti-social environment (remote) and they tend to be quite upset. The big reason for older teachers retiring early is due to their network exploding due to stock market gains, fear of Covid, and hatred of remote teaching. I think at this point - people are starting to learn that education wasn’t the primary goal of school. It was to be a daycare with the guise of learnings being done. Go with remote - no one wins.
