This was in reaction to the virtual learning which most tertiary institutions across the country have adopted due to the coronavirus pandemic.in an interview, explained that since students were not on campus, they had to fund their data and power supply saying, there could be problem if they didnot have computers or android phones.
“This online teaching/learning that we have been talking about, the major problem here is affordability issue. This issue could come up on the part of students where they don’t have the tools, where they can’t afford the data access and where they don’t have the supporting environment. Imagine an undergraduate that lives in a one-room apartment with two to four children and their parents,;I mean you have that kind of scenario in some places. Maybe at best, they have a room and parlor.
“In all of these, it is a good thing that we are going beyond the physical teaching and learning which people now call the new normal. But we need to actually plan for it, it is not something we just dabble into and somewhere along the line we see frustration on the part of students, staff and even the administration. It has to be subsidised for it to be affordable that is the point I’m trying to make.
And the proverbial glass ceiling presents itself, yet again
I've never seen this face on any article carrying favourable news before...
This man is beginning to resemble Lai one kind... Maybe it's the cap
Chairman. That's a big lie. Many Secondary Schools were able to do e-learning without much problem during the heat of Covid-19. We expect a much more perfect and seamless e-learning from universities. Affordability shouldn't be a problem on the students and University side.
Thought another strike is around the corner when I saw this mans face without reading the caption first.
