In recent weeks, many universities have regarded coronavirus as a major emergency, and have closed their classrooms and conducted online teaching. However, relevant experts said that the sudden shift to online learning is a "giant challenge" for schools and students. Many schools are struggling to overcome some practical difficulties, including how to ensure that poor students without laptops can attend classes normally, and how to evaluate students while the school is still closed during the exam season.
Dr. Doug Clow of the Open University in the United Kingdom stated that although many universities have started online teaching by allowing students to watch recording and broadcasting courses, it has to be noted that there are many teachers who do not have full online teaching experience. "This involves a different set of skills."
