Readers of UFA1.RU are surprised by the new rules for accessing school electronic diaries. Now access without Gosuslugi and the messenger Max is impossible.

“Write assignments in paper diaries,” demanded a visitor to our portal.

“To paper diaries — and abandon electronic diaries,” agreed a second. “Parents have that right; not everyone has computers.”

“Better to make their children study instead of sitting on phones,” another was indignant.

“If only teachers would give homework in class instead of forcing them to look in the electronic diary. And there the server is unavailable, or you can’t log in, or there’s simply no assignment because it wasn’t filled in on time,” another complained.

“Teachers always give homework. Children have become lazy to write it down,” objected a reader.

“Parents do the homework. The kids can’t even understand what was assigned, let alone do it,” believes a Ufa resident.

“We used to write homework on the board, and in our school until 2016–2017, with the advent of the electronic diary, teachers stopped writing it, arguing that everything is in the electronic diary. In the evening, the chat explodes with SMS, the electronic diary is empty, where is the homework. There were 3 types of these diaries, the problem is the same for all. Teachers don’t have time to give assignments in class, it would take 5 minutes from the lesson topic,” explained a site visitor.

“As I wrote in the upper right corner of the classroom board, so I write. Only 10-15% of students write it down with desire. The rest have to be forced. Most don’t study. And don’t want to. Although the kids are capable, not stupid. Notice that from elementary school, there are complicated rules and definitions, which subsequently also reduces the desire to learn,” believes a Ufa resident.

“I’m fed up with these dances with tambourines just to look at homework and grades! Why, what secret information is this? Logging into the app through the app, to the site through the site — for what, why? Now without a smartphone, a person is deprived of basic rights,” a Bashkiria resident is angry.

“I wish this internet would be turned off already!” added a portal visitor.

“Scammers will find loopholes anyway,” a city resident is sure.

Recall that for some users of Gosuslugi, when authorizing, the ability to skip downloading the messenger MAX has disappeared. When logging into an account through the mobile version of the browser, the service requires installing the app.
