What Improvements Do You Need?

The coronavirus became a big issue across the US. This was a tough process for young students transitioning to remote learning. With students on their laptops daily became all-consuming messing up their sleeping schedule.

The Transition

Online learning has also affected their physical activity levels too. For example, Jaiswal is a college student said, “I really do miss the walks, and just sitting at my laptop makes me feel extremely sluggish and lazy.” No walks between classes have made some students cramp up in their seats in front of their computers. But, some students tend to lay in bed for online classes, with no motivation to get up. Teachers in school focus on interactive communications. While trying online, there's this lack of social engagement. This can lead a student to lack in their grades.

Students have to face challenges depending on their location and accessibility. Students sometimes have unreliable internet connections, access to devices, and an improper learning environment students will struggle more during virtual learning.

Transitioning to remote learning has its weaknesses in scheduling. The only way to manage your class time is to motivate yourself. By doing that, organization and time management is key. When a student has overwhelming workloads and not understanding content can be confusing. Students that like online learning are capable of organizing and managing their routines.

Google feedback responses

Recently, I have asked students in my school about online learning. I have received feedback from students to hear their experiences so far.

Do you like learning online?

How are you feeling about the school year so far?

Students of SLA Beeber commented about learning online is a process and it’s going to take time. Students included the loss of motivation, internet issues, stress, burnouts, and it’s been okay. This a big change for students who go to school in person. It’s hard to contribute to remote learning because this is something we’re not used to. It’s been a year already and many students have been feeling the same way since the start of the school year.
