Due to the epidemic,our school has moved classes online as a temporary solution to nonstop learning. Online classes pose a challenge for both our teachers and us students.
Mr Gao,our 50-year-old maths teacher, has struggled to learn how to livestream his classes. He told us he would go through his lessons several times before 1ivestreaming.
While teaching online, Mr Gao accidentally turned on a beauty camera feature, which amused us greatly and won numerous likes from us.
Mr Gao deserves our respect and admiration as he’s doing his best to learn new teaching skills. From him, we’ve learned the true meaning of it’s never too late to learn.
Will Traditional Classes be Replaced by Online Classes?
These days many schools have launched online classes as the opening of the spring semester is further postponed because of the novel coronavirus. However, opinions on online classes vary.
Some welcome the change in teaching methods. Their reason is that it can release teachers from repeating the same contents and students can replay the teaching materials as well. Others have just the opposite opinion. They think that online education lacks teacher-student interactions and they doubt if students have self-discipline without supervision.
As far as I’m concerned, traditional classes can’t be replaced by online ones because what students acquire at school is more than knowledge. But when it comes to the special situation at the moment, online classes are a better option.
