It is challenging time for educators under the coronavirus outbreak. Many schools are still learning how to cope with the need to switch to online teaching, from the delivery platform, teaching/learning materials, the lesson plan to the pedagogy.
The need to master online teaching will not go away. Indeed blended learning is emerging as a mainstream approach to effective learning. Educators should make the most of the current situation to learn the fundamentals of effective e-learning. Let's get prepared for a new era of blended learning that will bring benefits to both educators and students.
