I find Zoom, google meet and BBB to be ideal for online live classes.

E-learning by using MS Team or google meet is great approach.

I USED bbb,MS BOTH WORKING WELL.

We have extended distance learning until the deadline for completion is not known

I use live zoom/google meet classes.

I used google classroom, google meet, and zoom. Yes, I am planning to used it after the coronavirus period.

Distance learning in obtaining the first education should be in addition to full-time education.

Agree with you Andrey

We use FCC, Google meet and Google classroom.

E-learning is good but it couldn't replace the traditional physical learning 🌹

Yep, we only talk over at the current time (Covid)

Dear Dr. Moez!

Zoom

Zoom, Voov meeting (chinese platform),

It largely depends on a teacher's competence and how he or she feels comfortable with a particular platform. I have also used WhatsApp and was quite successful in achieving the intended learning outcomes. Bulcsu Szekely has identified some great articles on the topic. Thank you so much. They are very insightful.

Well I think what would be best would vary based on a number of factors (from a layman perspective) such as

1) ease of use (navigation, etc)

2) cost involved

3) familiarity by both educators and learners

4) whether it can be used on and off line,

5) connection requirements,

6) etc

E-learning is the best platform in times to come- e-class, e-exam, e-discussion, e-simulations, etc

As is evident from personal experience, I believe google meet and zoom classes have been good platforms of online learning. These indeed have contributed in minimizing the loss to education during the current pandemic situation. However, it is also not without disadvantages. Network issues, inability to have one-on-one communication, lack of in-person skill learning and two-way feedback are to name few. Hence, I believe after the end of this period of social distancing, finding our way back to offline classes and sharing that wholesome experience of a classroom seems warranted.

We currently and have for the past delivered DL to a large cohort of students using Blackboard VLE, this has worked well and provided the students with good tools and resources and presented well. More recently we have have started to add Teams and Discord for additional support and communication.

The key in my opinion of 5 years + of DL delivery is to provide and support learners with what is needed for the Distance that is inherent with DL delivery - the scramble last year for a blended and DL delivery was interesting and a lot of what we had experience of was added to new innovation.

New innovation has made this delivery possible but i wonder how much technology will be supported once we do come out of the Pandemic fully - will Microsoft support MS Teams or drop it for the latest innovation like they have with other technology!
