Getting laid on line ain’t quite up.to standards either? The college experience is forever ruined.
I suggest it’s because they actually have to do some work and submit it back.
That’s either a fake report from administrators, instructors and teachers or a survey of lazy minded students and morons. I brought up a couple of well educated young people with homeschooling, and most of it was easily done with online information.
Some students do not have to be social in a classroom. That changes online, shy students have to face people they would rather not deal with. Zoom classes are okay, but without body language signals it is difficult to know when, or how, to answer. Tests were verbal, not written, another downside for shy people.
The college experience isn’t all about social life.
Today I told my 10 year-old daughter if she comes out with me I will buy her a new bicycle.
She turned me down saying: I am doing school work.
I told her next week.
It DOES NOT mean they are lazy, or stupid, but it is a major adjustment.
Leftist/globalist publications like the journal “Science” blame professors for the low quality of instruction because they “do not know how to teach online”. Then they give tips, like simplifying their lectures and other presentations so that they will “fit the online format”.
Could that be the REAL reason (plus the lack of back-and-forth feedback) for the low quality of online instruction?
Obviously there are just some classes that dont work well over a Zoom meeting. That has to be expected.
I wonder how they are going to implement the mandated LGBTQ curriculum that is due to go into effect in many states July 2020.
It really depends on a number of factors, e.g., the age of the student, the type of course, physical demands, etc. My wife is in the midst of completing her PhD and found no problems. Her only problem was not being able to arrange the prof’s library as part of her work duties and hours paid to her.
Actually,the material and education is much better. The “brick and mortar” experience is mostly about indoctrination,hooking up,getting drunk and getting high.
Fifty-four percent of students said it’s “somewhat worse,” and another 25 percent replied it’s “significantly worse,” for a total of 79 percent.
Stockholm Syndrome.
many of their professors were brand new to distance education. and did not have course materials ready for that format.
so the kind of distance ed that’s going on right now is a mix. some well-prepared professors who already know how to do distance ed classes well..............and many more profs who are complete novices at distance ed. And who can’t even get in-person training because their campuses are locked down.
