Quarantined-at-Home Teaching Experience: My E-Learning Plan and Implementation
Qamar, Azher Hameed
Journal of Teaching and Learning, v14 n1 p120-132 2020
Using my own teaching experience in quarantined-at-home settings, I describe and reflect on my e-learning plan and its implementation. I am teaching two groups of undergraduate students consisting of 80 students. I taught half of the course content during the first half of the semester in a formal university setting. However, after the novel corona breakout, we engaged in online teaching. In line with university guidelines and available support, I initiated my e-learning plan based on blended learning and led by the core objectives to maintain accessibility and quality. Using asynchronous and synchronous modes, I used common and easily available options to enhance two-way teacher-student communication. The feedback that I received after three weeks of implementation of my e-learning plan proved my understanding of the study context as workable and realistic. My conceptual models about the objectives leading the e-learning plan and the implementation model presented in this article can be helpful for the teachers teaching social sciences for the first time in quarantined settings.
