How lessons are like in a pandemic...


Most of the practical lessons online revolve around a lecturer explaining what is happening in a video. There are also virtual labs for courses like Sports Rehabilitation and Biomechanics which lecturers present via video-conferencing apps and social media. Relistening to the recorded lectures – even if it takes time – is useful in helping me grasp the subject. When necessary, we do experiments in the labs but with tight standard operating procedures and a limit on the number of students allowed to attend. I live in an urban area and didn’t have network connection problems unlike some of my other coursemates. Online learning for me is going on well but coping with the many assignments is a challenge.
