Online teaching during COVID-19

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, almost all classes in Iran have to be held online. Whereas, many teachers are faced with several issues for online teaching. Low internet speed in Iran, having no access to suitable devices (such as tablets and laptops) and high prices to buy standard online platforms (such as Adobe Connect) are just a few problems of online teaching in Iran. Consequently, most teachers have attended to hold classes in social media.

One of my friends and I have done volunteer research to track the most important concerns and problems of teachers for holding online classes. The following data is extracted from an online survey that we have done. 60 teachers have participated in this survey, who were involved in teaching online in different schools and different fields around the country.

We have analyzed the collected data and then have delivered some practical simple solutions to help teachers tackling with some of those problems. our focus was mostly on helping teachers take advantage of their accessible devices for making qualified educational media and hold impressive online classes for kids.

  • General statics about teachers who participated in the survey

  • Which degree do you teach online?

  • Which online platform do you usually use for holding the online classes? (You can choose up to 5 options.)

  • Which device do you have access to for holding online classes and creating educational content?

  • Which method do you usually leverage to hold an online class?

  • What is your major challenge for holding online classes? (descriptive question)

  • Which software or application do you take advantage of for educational content creation?

 

And here is one of the several free video clips (in Persian) that we have provided for teachers to help them improve the efficiency of online classes.
