should not be halted. Higher education, in particular, can instill in our youth the responsibility to play
their decisive role in bringing Pakistan out of this hard-hitting situation. Still, the needs of students were
not addressed as it was announced by the Ministry of Federal Education and Professional Training that
all the educational institutes of the country would remain closed. The Higher Education Commission

Suggestions/Solutions:

Suggestion and solution for both teachers and students

Online learning may be new and different, but it also allows you to take the courses you need
to earn the degree you want all in a supportive and convenient setting.Even if you’re facing
challenges, believe that you can do this. There’s no interaction between learner and teacher.
The experience will be very different and that transition can be difficult for many learners.
Managing your time wisely and focusing on your goals are great ways to stay on track and
accomplish what you want to get out of your program.There should be strong internet
connection between students and teachers. Furthermore, with the help of teachers or
facilitators and the learning community, you can gain the right support and advice to reduce
problems.
