During recent time, online teaching and learning were widely implemented in schools. Although being a temporary solution, online learning has helped the educational sector to gain dual goals of applying modern teaching method, and at the same time, awakening the learner to study by themselves when all schools have been closed.
E-learning/ Online learning is a study method that uses internet to serve teaching, downloading learning documents, discussing and communicating between teachers and students. It’s easy for the learners to follow the study process, study results, timely be supported necessary information as well as check the operation of the schools. The strong point of online learning is that this kind of study method allows learners to choose and review the study contents, study results whenever they want. The learners do not rely on fixed time and space and they can study at all stages of their lives.
According to the evaluation of the Department of Education and Training, most of teachers choose social networks like Facebook, Zalo, Email, the Apps like Zoom, Google Classroom, Microsoft Teams… However, online learning is facing with many difficulties due to asynchronous technological infrastructure, low-quality human resources and inadaptable interaction between teaching and learning process. From 2020 to date, the Education sector of Thai Nguyen province has implemented thousands of online lessons, produced hundreds of teaching videos, used graphic electronic lesson and audio lessons to support learners in areas that lack information or to update electronic data at schools or for the whole sector.
Ms. Phan Thi Phuong, Deputy Head of Education and Training Department of Vo Nhai district said: “Schools in the district have actively copied documents, recorded videos, then showed at schools or residential areas. We also exploited data to support areas that lack information”.
“In the coming time, we will apply services such as virtual classrooms and digital maps basing on the digital transformation plans of different careers with the hope that the people can benefit from administrative services on socio-economic fields”, Mr. Nguyen Duc Thinh, Vice Director of the Department of Education and Training shared.
One of the main issues in digital transformation of the educational sector in the period 2021-2025 is combining direct and online teaching, contributing to increase the quality of comprehensive education, helping the learners to access national and international knowledge and modern skills.
