Adaptations to a Face-to-Face Initial Teacher Education Course 'Forced' Online Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic
Journal of Education for Teaching: International Research and Pedagogy, v46 n4 p609-611 2020
This report describes the adaptations made to one initial teacher education course at a Hong Kong university designed for face-to-face instruction that was required to be delivered exclusively online due to the suspension of face-to-face classes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. It describes the adaptations the tutor made, and the challenges faced adapting to the new mode of delivery. It is hoped that others can learn from the author's experience and be prepared for the suspension of face-to-face classes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic or other health emergencies.
