“Education in Pandemic Crisis”
Stating how COVID -19 change the educational system
of learning. Enumerating a couple of facts written inside
the article. This issue is one of the major concerns of the
educators like me and the title really caught my attention.
True enough that many schools shut not only across
the country but all over the world that over 1.2 billion
children globally are out of the classroom. Well
educators all over the globe is much concern about this
especially for the private operating school that are not
directly subsidize by the government.
Since education would change drastically and
dramatically from traditional teaching to digital or online
learning is such a big concern for private school sector
since they are going to shoulder the expenses for the
changes they would create or do in order to cater quality
education needed for this special circumstance. Meaning
less to face to face interaction, shifting schedules are
implemented, distance learning, different modes of
teaching to perform and of course teachers should have
proper trainings to help them adjust for this new culture
of learning.
There is a significant surge of online learning software
using educational apps or websites to browse like google
classrooms, language apps, virtual tutoring, video
conferencing tools and other online learning. It helps
boost the capability of learning anywhere and
everywhere but the main problem to it is its
implementation and provisions. We also have to
familiarize ourselves with the application first to make
sure that the app is safe, secure and user friendly before
letting the students use it. We have to make sure that the
personal information of our students is kept confidential.
Since E-learning would become a part of our new
normal life , let us explore and use it to its full potential.
Let us explore new methods of learning capabilities and
discover new ways to help enhance and improve our
education system. At the midst of this trying times let us
always do the best that we can and be thankful to the
intelligence that God has granted us to overcome this
pandemic. Help our learners to bounce back to face this
uncertain future with confidence.
