viruses that strike humankind, with over 1.34 million deaths worldwide. Even from the early days of covid-19, many countries tried to fight the virus but the efforts were fruitless, for this reason, many states of countries was quarantined and further beyond whole countries too. Not only that but most importantly the Covid-19 has affected educational systems to leading to the near-total closures of schools, universities, and colleges worldwide to reduce the spread as most of the students and colleges don’t show any symptoms.
To start with, challenges for students which have been
caused by Covid-19 are plenty in the educational field. More particularly many students are not provided with the high bandwidth or the strong internet connection that online courses require, and thus fail to catch up with their virtual classmates: Their weak monitors make it hard to follow the Course Management System and their learning experience becomes problematic. Also, most of them live off campus and find it difficult to keep in tune with the technical requirements of the chosen course. Some of them don’t even own computers and seek help in forums for technical assistance. For this significant reason, it would be polite on behalf of the government to give away to students with economical issues, the required equipment which is needed for them to attend their classes and do their homework.
Another example of a common challenge may be time
management. Time management is a difficult task for eLearners, as online courses require a lot of time and intensive work. Furthermore, whereas it is mostly adults who prefer web-based learning programs for their place and time flexibility, they rarely have the time to take the courses due to their various everyday commitments. A regular schedule planner would be a significant help to these learners, so they could handle their work more effectively and they could even set reminders for their courses and assignments as well.
Taking into consideration all of the points above, I
believe that students and generally the global educational system has already been dealing with all of these issues with responsibility and patience. However, only by taking some drastic measures like those above, will we achieve to be less-stressed and more balanced, not only as an educational system but as a country as well.
