In as much as I support online teaching and vouch for it, institutions must be committed to quality. It is much more demanding than face to face teaching in terms of preparation and creativity. But again, we cannot ran away from it. We must embrace change and sometimes change is painful and costly.
I agree with Akinyi. Online teaching requires universities/institutions have a clear plan for communication and accessibility on online teaching. Especially during this COVID 19 pandemic which has interrupted the face to face interruption, consider the accessibility of learners/students to an online environment
Government still has a major role to play regardless .The challenges must be tackled heads on an their must be political will too. Learning is good but the right condition must be met or improvised just like Ken says
Online teaching is now the new normal approach in education. I don't think there will be any turning back. All stakeholders must do their part.
I agree with you. Institutions have to put in their best, to ensure that the best resources is given to online teaching, to improve the educational system. It is something that institutions have to accept, and not deny, because of the reinvention in the global world.
