BENEFITS OF REMOTE

LEARNING DURING THIS


TIME OF PANDEMIC
1. HELPING STUDENTS DEVELOP
EMPATHY FOR OTHERS

• There’s nothing like a pandemic to make us


feel like we are all in the same boat. This has
provided a unique opportunity for students
to understand how others are experiencing
a situation that they themselves are living
through. Many teachers have used this as
great starting point for using design thinking
to understand the needs of others.
2. STUDENTS IDENTIFYING AND
SOLVING REAL-WORLD PROBLEMS

• In an ideal world learning should always be


connected to students own lives and be
based on authentic contexts and
experiences. Teachers have grasped the
opportunity for students to tackle some of
the many real-world problems presented by
the pandemic.
3. GREATER CONNECTION BETWEEN
HOME AND SCHOOL

• We’ve always known that learning is most effective


when there is a partnership between school and
home. Remote learning models have created a
need for families to be actively involved in their
children’s learning. Of course this has been
challenging for busy parents juggling multiple
demands, but it’s also seen many parents
becoming more involved in and aware of their
children’s learning.
4. SHIFT TO DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY
• Digital technologies have been part of learning in
classrooms for a long time now but the shift to
remote learning has seen teachers relying on them
more than ever to provide quality learning
experiences. Many teachers have developed their
capacity for embedding technology in their
teaching and found innovative ways to maximise the
potential of digital tools. Remote learning is shifting
digital tools from a ‘nice to have’ to a ‘must have’.
5. STUDENTS DEVELOPING 21ST
CENTURY SKILLS

• Remote learning models are giving students a


unique opportunity and purpose for developing and
applying many important 21st century skills.
Students are learning new ways to collaborate and
communicate as they interact with their classmates
and educators in new ways. They are also
increasingly being asked to think critically and
creative and solve problems as they find new ways
of accessing and demonstrating their learning.
USEFUL TO DEVELOP FUTURE SKILLS

• In this new age, technology has been changing the


way we work and live. If you want to plan for future
challenges, so the implementation of the new
technology is important. Both educators and
students are seeking to embrace the new technical
methods and applications with the rising use of
technology in the educational vertical
AFFORDABILITY

• Reduced fee structures are another advantage of


professional learning and online learning. In
contrast with physical schooling, online schooling is
much more accessible. This is because online
schooling reduces the cost of accommodation for
students, food for students, and most notably, real
estate.
• The online learning system can be customised in
several ways, with its variety of choices and tools. It
is the only way to build a perfect learning
atmosphere that is suitable for each student’s
needs.
FLEXIBILITY

• Online curriculum encourages the teacher and the


student to set their own rate of learning, and there is
the extra versatility of setting a timetable that suits
the agenda of all. As a result, it makes for a greater
balancing between jobs and studies by having an
online education tool, so there is no reason to give
up something. Studying online teaches you vital
skills in time management, which makes it easier to
find a good work-study balance.
It allows for a customized learning experience.
EFFICIENCY

• Online learning is an easy means for


teachers to offer lessons to pupils. There are
a range of resources for online learning,
such as videos, PDFs, interviews, so all these
options can be used by teachers as part of
their teaching materials. Teachers are willing
to become more effective learners by
expanding the lesson plan beyond
conventional textbooks to incorporate
educational content.
