This semester is the second semester that we are having our class online. The first semester was a bit challenging since all of us are partially ready for the online session at home. I am teaching the Mobile Application Development course for lectures and labs, and Machine Learning course for labs. 2 different courses using 2 different ways of writing the codes.
I have my classes in the morning and afternoon. I have no comments on that. There is no specific best time to teach and learn because it can happen when we have an interest.
As for the second week, I am happy with my classes and labs. As a lecturer, I set the rules, and I follow the rule. I prepared the housekeeping notes for the online lecture just to ensure everyone is on the same page. If the class started at 9.00am, I will ensure that I am ready with the MS Teams meeting at 8.55am. Create the meeting, remind on WhatsApp to join the class. I take their attendance in every session. In UNITEN, we have a QR Code system. It is very cool. The lecturer generates the QR code, the students scan the code using UNITENLife app. This code is valid within the class session only. Then I cross-check their attendance with my registered list just to ensure there are no missing participants.
Never kill their momentum in learning.
I attended a few online training sessions. Some lectures may cause me to lose focus. I understand that my students also may experience that. They are just a normal human being. I always interact with my students during the lecture. I am lucky because they responded to my query. In making the teaching more attractive, I have made a quick quiz to recap the chapter covered for that day. They enjoy it.
May Allah ease my work.
Alhamdulillah for all of His blessings.
