Time: 5 – 10 minutes, approximately
Look at the different statements below. Is each statement a pro or a con in online teaching?
Online teaching has pros and a few cons. Although you are likely to teach your learners mainly F2F, online teaching can extend and enhance learning. This is especially important when learners are unable to attend school at all, as happened during the Covid-19 pandemic, but you can also offer your learners some online learning opportunities in ‘normal’ times. As you’ve seen in this task, everyone benefits!
