ONLINE CLASSES: FROM A STUDENT'S PERSPECTIVE

 

Learning has never been so complicated. For teachers things got harder and challenging, but what is the situation of some students, and how this new way of learning affected them?
Certainly, all the students had different types of problems with the pandemic and the new modality in education, but as a student too, I can talk about the things I have been experiment with during this and what I see my classmates have been struggling with.

The first thing I realized was the necessity of the interaction between classmates and teachers, and honestly, I still not understand why that affects the way you learn and the motivation, but it does.
Another thing that I realized about, is that even we have probably the same amount of work to do as students, it is more frustrating to see everything through the screen because it gets harder to understand the things you have to do, and to solve doubts, so it feels harder than what it actually is.
Now, if we have to talk about other types of problems, we have to put technologically issues on the top of the list (and i know for teachers is frustrating too), because there is nothing worst that be in the middle of the class and lose the internet connection, or not understand what the teacher is saying because of the bad connection the screen freezes and the voice is cut off, or worse, not having a computer or internet to get through the semester. The last situation is the shocking one because I have seen it in some classmates who don't have money to buy a computer or to buy a better one, and their stress levels go through the roof because the simple fact of taking a class becomes a burden or something impossible for many. In the end, we just have to support each other and do the best we can to overcome the situation as much as possible.
