Through this discussion, I would like to know your opinion on the possibility of applying flipped classrooms with a reduced number of students during face-to-face sessions and more time for online learning, in order to complete the program for the second semester of the current academic year due to the COVID-19 crisis.
Corona has destroyed the world and its economy, so how about education, and if you want to destroy a country that never begins with education, a famous saying, and I have no more answer to this question, I hope that you will accept the answer from me
We actually complete the second semester via Google classroom and other online programs.
The second semester we actually finished it electronically.
We have to think about next year whether it will be electronic or traditional education.
What about the examination Mundher Alsaaidi منذر السعيدي ? In my institution, we have conducted about 50-60%% of the program on line.
Dear Liqaa Habeb Al-Obaydi ,
How about the examination? Are all your students were present during on line courses? Are you planning to schedule face-to-face sessions or not?
Regards

In universities, the examination were done electronically, while in schools, students were awarded the same degree as the first semester.
Some private universities have replaced the exam with research work and projects.

OK Mundher Alsaaidi منذر السعيدي thank you very much for your answer.
Thank you Abdelkader Mohamed Elsayed for sharing the link
Best regards
I am more concerned of the integrity of the examinations conducted online.
It is important, I agree.
What have you done to ensure its integrity Yacine Lafifi
Abiola Olawale Ilori In my institution, until now, we haven't the final decision. However, in my proposition about the use of flipped classrooms, there are many solutions to do the examination (online or face to face).
I think mixed education or combined education would be a strategic choice during COVID-19 and beyond.
I think that the blended teaching is the suitable teaching method for obtaining good results. I share your opinion Abdelkader Mohamed Elsayed
I agree with you Soheir Hagras . I appreciated your contribution. Thank you
Learning online is a disadvantage to the poor during covid 19 pandemic as they struggle to make ends meet
It is a great choice with what we are going through . But my concern is that preparing online sessions is different from preparing a F2F meeting , online education is a real time consumer that lacks spontaneous interaction and sometimes leaves gaps without acknowledgment that students met the requirment . Assessments and being online is also different from preparing paper based assessments . Do you think that teachers are ready for this load ?
Yes, there are some inconveniences of e-learning. However, is such emergency situations (like COVID-19), what do yo propose as a solution John Mudanya ?
Dear our Prof.,
Thank you for asking this question that I find extremely valuable. I think that our students should be motivated and prepared to attend online courses.
So I think that after this pandemic's passed, we have to think about giving online courses for our students in normal situations. This will help our students to be well suited to learn in an e-learning environment under emergency situations such as COVID-19.
Best,
Amine
I agree totally with you Amin. In your information, after COVID-19, this method (online courses in normal situations) will be applied next year in our university. Thank you for your contribution
In my institution, online learning will continue until next semester. At least this plan will be implemented while looking at the development of the COVID-19 virus in Indonesia. To be honest, to date I have had many difficulties in implementing online learning processes. Especially from the unstable student signal and the difficulty of the process of transfer of knowledge carried out when not face to face. I know exactly that sooner or later we will face a period where learning will take place online, but to be honest we (teachers and students) are not ready for it.
Thank you Mohammad Archi Maulyda for sharing your experience. I know that online courses have some difficulties. However, in emergency situations, I think that it is the best solution.

Dear Amal abo Ashak
Thank you for your answer. I respect your opinion. However, in your opinion, what is the solution if the actual situation (COVID-19) stay with us for a long time?
We stay without education!
I don't agree with you about this point. Because, I think that e-Learning can be a support to face to face teaching in normal situations or at least a solution for continuing teaching in emergency situations.
Best regards
Dear Dr. Yacine Lafifi ,
I think the flipped classroom will be the strategic choice for the current stage and beyond, because it is a type of blended learning where students are introduced to content at home and practice working through it at school. This is the reverse of the more common practice of introducing new content at school, then assigning homework and projects to completed by the students independently at home.
I strongly recommend using this type of education because it offers the following benefits:
Dr. Abdelkader Mohamed Elsayed your contributions are always welcome. I really appreciate them, especially that about the enumeration of the benefits of flipped classrooms. I agree totally with you.
