Every morning, since the outbreak of the coronavirus, Khushi Soni, a student of Class 11 at the Shiv Nadar School in Gurugram, has been attending online classes. She is among millions across the country and the world who were forced to shift to online learning almost overnight.

While challenging, she says that the initial days were also exciting as this was a whole new experience. It was a difficult year for all of us. The online school year had an exciting start. It was something new and seemed futuristic. We enjoyed the comfort of our own room, she says.

Hybrid workspaces are already becoming the norm across the globe and it looks like hybrid learning is gaining popularity as well.

It is not unreasonable to assume that the future of education could involve a mixed, blended, and hybrid model in order to most efficiently cope with the changing times, says Shashi Banerjee, Director of Education, Shiv Nadar School.

Under the hybrid model, a student's progress is monitored through practice tests and extra assignments, and teachers have been made to actively supporting them and their parents throughout this transition

Why online education is better than traditional education?

Hybrid education is a combination of in-person or offline learning and virtual or online learning methods. In this model, online resources replace certain portions of the syllabus that would otherwise have been taught in the classroom.

It is, therefore, important to make sure that there is no clash or conflict in the operation of the two separate models as they both form parts of a whole, adds Shashi.

The hybrid model, while still in its early days of implementation, has proved to have several benefits, the biggest of which is flexibility. Without the constraints of a single classroom, there is significant potential to rethink how a course is taught, how students access study material, and interact with instructors and other learners.

It also creates the possibility of holding classes with mixed groups, providing a personalised teaching-learning experience for both students and the teachers, says Shashi.

Students can also design their own learning pathways based on their own curiosity. An example is the STEAM programme where students have been given more freedom to explore, and the NEP's move towards a more flexible assessment model means that students can choose to focus their energies on learning about things that truly interest them, says Shashi.

These initiatives will enable further development of students who are empathetic, can think for themselves, and take calculated risks, which are the aims of the NEP.

Through the online and hybrid mode of learning, I feel my child has learnt to become more serious about her classes and subjects. She understands that she has to make the best of the limited exposure they have to their teachers. Students want to set and create their own momentum. I am happy that her school played an active role by using tech platforms like Nearpod to creatively engage students to go beyond the syllabus, says Nivedita Mishra, a parent of a senior school student at the Shiv Nadar School.

She says that her daughters progress is monitored through practice tests and extra assignments, and teachers have been made actively supporting students and parents throughout this transition.

However, there will be a steep learning curve as both students and teachers adapt to the new model. Both teachers and the students have to adapt and adjust to this blending of two very different modes of learning, which can be very complex and instead of speeding up the process, might actually derail it temporarily. Over the last year-and-half, schools have ironed out the issues with virtual learning and students have also started adjusting to this mode of education. What helped make the model a success is a greater level of cooperation and collaboration between students, parents, and teachers, says Shashi, who feels that technology, unless used well, can be as tyrannical a regime as the chalk-board power system.

She feels the best way to address this is by encouraging student leadership through the development of student voice and choice in learning programmes, as well as in the design of lessons.

Among the main challenges to adapting to the hybrid model will be ensuring equal engagement and collaboration. With half the students studying online and the other half are studying in the classroom, coordination can be difficult.

For a teacher, involving each student in a discussion is important and ensuring that the lesson has been understood in detail and everyones doubts have been cleared is a must. Therefore, creating opportunities such as group discussions, debates, and presentations can work as a solution, says Shashi.

The hybrid model can result in some students feeling more isolated while their peers who choose to go to school interact in person. However, there are those who have come to prefer online education

For the students, there is an added layer to consider. There were days I felt distracted with the thought of some of my friends having fun in school while I was stuck at home. Focusing during online classes is hard sometimes, but with friends I haven't met for long in school made it more difficult for me, says Samarth Agarwal, a Class 11 student at the Shiv Nadar School.

He adds that the lockdown has been a mixed bag because the chance to be at home also allowed him to spend more time with himself and take a break from the outside world. While limited social interaction has been a challenge in terms of collaboration and teamwork, students have been using technology for regular virtual interactions as well to have more shared experiences.

Khushi says students were allowed to choose platforms they were comfortable with. Coming to school to clear our doubts and meet our friends impacted us positively. As we moved back to online classes, we started creative clubs to explore our passions together. While we would love to go back to school, we also understand the efforts made by our teachers to cope with these changing times.

With so many changes happening almost overnight, students, teachers, and parents have had to struggle to adapt. In addition to the steep learning curve, many educators who are not tech-savvy were forced not only to learn a new method of education remotely but also to keep students engaged.

The constantly evolving environment is at times a source of stress both for students and teachers. While it may have been fun when it began, that soon gave way to finding ways to sustain motivation and focus. Finding the privacy and personal space to attend classes, constant supervision, and entry of parents into their academic world has not been easy on many of them, says Shashi.

She feels that students can be supported by creating and facilitating opportunities for free and open conversations amongst each other as they would have in the physical school space. Parents should also be supported with ways to manage the pandemic and parenting, strategies to increase the emotional and physical regulation, and with managing their own stress. This will indirectly lead to students having more positive interactions within the home.

It is important to normalise conversations around mental health. The skills needed to work on positive mental health understanding of self and managing stress are as important as academic skills. We must create a safe environment to help everyone talk about their emotions, feelings, and fears comfortably. Having counsellors in the school to take care of students and teachers is essential in todays day and time, says Shashi.

A holistic is important given that it is reasonable to assume that the future of education could involve a mixed, blended, and hybrid model.

However, it is too early to say by when the shift will be a permanent feature in our lives. For now, we will have to ensure that COVID protocols and SOPs from the government are followed to ensure the safety of our children, Shashi signs off.

Is the hybrid model of education here to stay? - YourStory

ISLAMABAD -President Dr. Arif Alvi on Tuesday emphasises the need that the universities have to increase the quantum of online education with major focus on research and innovation to promote quality education in the country.

Speaking at a briefing on National University of Modern Languages (NUML) here, the President said the universities need to shape their vision in a way to prepare students to cope with challenges of fast changing world.

Appreciating the role of university in educational development of the country, the President emphasized that higher education institutions require to produce intellectually supreme graduates to meet the challenges of the 21st century. He asked the management of university to establish IT Department to provide the youth with employable skills so that they could contribute to the nations economic development. Rector NUML Major General (R) Muhammad Jaffer gave a presentation about the role of university in promotion of education in the country.

Meanwhile, speaking at an international conference on innovation and entrepreneurship here Tuesday, President Alvi said the government was taking steps to build information highways and extend reach of the people to new fourth generation technologies.

He said the goal of present government was to improve digital financial system, achieve women empowerment and ensure economic transparency. He said Pakistan was making great progress with the use of emerging technologies. He noted that Pakistan was left behind during the industrial revolution. In the fourth information technology revolution, the communication and spread of information had become very fast, he said adding the world was now witnessing the advent of fifth generation revolution.

He mentioned that immense information was accumulated by the world through cloud computing. Youth could gain advantage by gathering information and through innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship, he added.

He said the government was making efforts to attain one hundred percent literacy in the country and impart skills to the people who could not get education.

The stress was on making the youth familiar with artificial intelligence and technologies like block chain and computer networking, he added. The president said the companies banking on gathering of information and intelligence had replaced the traditional top companies of the world.

He was of the view that economy of Pakistan could leapfrog to be among the top global economies. Pakistan had the necessary educational infrastructure to train its youth for the emerging challenges and the experienced businessmen should also provide mentorship to the young population, he added.

The president told that the government was working on setting up special technology zones and endeavouring to encourage investment and utilize its youth bulge.

He said the world needed the skilled youth of Pakistan but he wanted that the skilled youth should be retained in the country through joint ventures and other initiatives. Pakistan could learn from the experiences of Japan and Germany to achieve digital transformation and better models of governance and economy.

The president said the importance of brick and mortar schools would decrease while the intellectual communication would gain speed. The industrial infrastructure had already changed in the next 15 to 20 years, he added.

The new technologies have created vibrancy and youth should focus on these technologies.

Dr Arif urged the world to focus on reduction of poverty and merit based distribution of wealth and democratization of societies.

We have to be on guard against the accumulation of wealth as mentioned in so many books on capitalism.

The Calgary Board of Education is giving families one last opportunity to enrol students in online learning this fall as the COVID-19 pandemic carries on.

In a notice to parents and guardians on Thursday, the board said given the state of the public health situation, enrollment for online learning will be open for the entire 2021-22 school year.

If families enrol, it will be a commitment for the entire year, the CBE said.

It is not designed to allow for transitions to in-person learning at any point during the school year, the board said.

Students who transfer to CBe-learn from alternative programs or schools with capped enrolment/lotteries will not have their space held and would need to go through the transfer or lottery process again if they wish to return in future years.

Story continues below advertisement

Online learning is open to students in grades 1 through 12.

Enrolment for online learning starts on Aug. 23, with virtual classes starting on either Sept. 7 or Sept. 13, depending on transfer times and when particular schools officially open.

More information on the online learning options, as well as instructions on how to sign up, can be found on the CBEs website.

The CBE also said Wednesday that it was reinstating its mask mandate for all indoor spaces, for all students and staff in all schools.

The changes come a week after the province released its back-to-school plan, which saw virtually all previous public health measures removed from schools, including mandatory masking and tracing of positive cases.

COVID-19: Calgary Board of Education reopens online learning sign-up - Global News

As we approach the possibility of schools requiring remote learning again this fall, the clarion call against it is sure to rear its angry head. While I dont disagree that schools that were never well-equipped to handle virtual learning have tainted the entire concept of online classrooms, I still find it an unfair correlation. Virtual learning isnt bad because its virtual. Its often bad because the school wasnt prepared to offer innovative, interactive online classes. This isnt a dig at teachers who had to upend their classrooms and fully convert everything online. Instead, its an understanding that schools that werent already equipped for online learning cant compete with schools that have it in their mission. This conversation has been focusing on the wrong things. Instead of touting either/or, why not both blended learning?

Blended learning is not a new concept for many forward-thinking schools such as France-based Le Sallay International Academy and Laurel Springs High School in Ojai, Calif., according to a Forbes report in January. Blended learning uses online and in-person learning, giving students the best of both worlds. For schools that have built blended learning into their mission, the often touted horrors of remote learning are irrelevant. As technology evolves, so too should education. The pandemic has shown us that our traditional approach to education is in serious need of an overhaul. With so many educational options like blended learning available, why choose schools based purely on proximity when we have the entire world in our laps?

Students said they were confused and caught off guard by the email that came from the faculty group without warning.

ATLANTA Confusion stirred at Spelman Collegeover whether the fall semester will be in-person or online.

Everyone at the collegereceived an email Thursday morning from the Faculty Council, a group of tenured professors who said they didn't feel safe teaching in-person and want to go virtual. The email quickly went viral online.

Students said they were confused and caught off guard by the email that came from the faculty group without warning, saying they've decided not to teach in-person and will use alternative instructional methods.

"A lot of my peers and I were not upset at all because safety is first, we are in a growing pandemic once again, and we support the faculty decision," Spelman Junior Kaylin Daigle said.

Daigle tweeted a screen shot of the email and it was quickly retweeted by many.

The reaction to the faculty group's email was mixed, but Daigle said the students she knows were supportive.

"Many of them wanted to take a pause. Many of them, not all, they just wanted to take a break on in person classes," she said.

In a statement to 11Alive, a spokesperson for the college said classes will not be virtual. They expect professors to teach in-person.

Vaccines are required on campus, and students and staff have to wear masks both indoors and outdoors at all times.

Read the school's statement below:

"The health and safety of the Spelman community is a top priority as we restore the residential college experience this year. With the guidance of the medical community and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention we have implemented mandatory vaccinations, along with masking and periodic testing, in order to obtain the lowest possible risk to the campus community.

The college remains open for in-person instruction. In response to faculty concerns, expanded guidance has been posted on the Spelman website for students, faculty and staff.

We welcome the input of faculty. We will continue to monitor the state of community spread in the city of Atlanta and Fulton County while continuing to closely following guidance from the CDC, and adjust plans for on campus instruction accordingly."

Pittsburghs first unicorn has big plans for the future.

Last Friday, East Liberty-headquartered language learning company Duolingo hosted the third annual Duocon, a free, virtual, prerecorded conference providing updates on the companys business strategy and product features, as well as more social events like this years baking class with Sohla El-Waylly.

Like past conferences, Duocon 2021 featured talks that shared a wide range of perspectives on the human connections language can provide, and the important of learning different ones because of that. But this year also shed light on how Duolingo is moving to expand its educational tech capabilities beyond languages, looking at the success of its artificial intelligence platform Birdbrain, and ahead to the impending launch of a new math app. Since the companys IPO earlier this summer, CEO and cofounder Luis von Ahn has also stated that Duolingo, with a current 350-plus employee count, could look to branch out to even more learning subjects through acquisitions.

The idea is that were trying to find subjects that improve peoples opportunities in life, von Ahn said in his State of Duolingo talk.

Updates to the companys product features and future plans are significant largely because of Duolingos momentum throughout the pandemic, when people turned newfound time at home into a chance to learn a new language. Particularly with the shift to online learning for schools to maintain social distancing, Duolingos user experience and use of artificial intelligence have helped to push the barrier of what remote education can look like.

Birdbrain, a machine learning model introduced by the company in October 2020, has so far brought a new, individualized approach to the platform. Burr Settles, the research director at Duolingo, detailed how Birdbrain can help predict a users unique difficulty level at a moment in time, and create lessons that provide the optimal challenge and motivation for that person. A/B testing of this technology over the past several months showed that content length increased by 8.9% and time spent learning increased by 3.1% in skills practice, Settles said.

These advances come in addition to others powered by artificial intelligence on the app, like customized character voices, individualized lesson alert notes and the use of natural language processing for the company to audit content over time.

Until everybody in the world has access to a really great teacher, we think AI is the best way to scale that kind of experience to as many people as possible, Settles said.

Confirming previous reports about the companys plans to move beyond language learning in education, von Ahn shared goals for the year ahead in his end-of-day State of Duolingo talk, laying out objectives to reach more users, increase the number of subscribers and improve the companys language proficiency standard. von Ahn also mentioned recent product features that have helped to make language learning on the app even more immersive.

The new conversation feature, which allows users to have a live conversation with the Duolingo app, and the Hoots feature, which allows users to answer a writing prompt immediately graded with artificial intelligence, offers new capabilities that could easily transition to other educational subjects.

The idea is that you can write really these relatively long paragraphs, especially for beginners, and then we can grade the whole thing without ever using a human, von Ahn said of the Hoots feature.

Both new tools are a sign that Duolingo is looking for ways to make online education even more engaging as it continues to be the norm for many students during the pandemic. Along with these updates will be a revamp of the Duolingo for Schools tool, making it more accessible and easier to use.

The hope is that teachers are going to have a much better time using Duolingo in schools than they did before, said von Ahn. And thats something that were very excited about because we know how much Duolingo can help in schools, especially when schools are not fully in person.

Finally, von Ahn shared previews of the elementary school-level math app in development, sharing that it will be similar to the current version of Duolingo in that the app will be a gamified, fun way to learn math. These expansion plans, he emphasized, directly align with the companys mission, and will define the future of the company.

As long as there are people in the world who cant read or there are people in the world who dont know basic math or there are people in the world who want to continue learning things, he said, we still have a lot of work to do.

Footage has emerged of Alfredo Morelos keeping active during his quarantine period by running around the car park of the hotel in which he was staying, temporarily.

Is this really how an elite sports person should be treated?

Yes, critics may say that most people are subject to quarantine regulations when arriving from a particular country in this case from red list Colombia but exemptions have already been in place for professional sports and their bubbles, the same one Morelos will rejoin very shortly.

Look at this scene below. It is commendable that the Colombian international has wanted to keep himself ticking over and getting some fresh air too, but it is not a sight that Rangers will be happy about.

An excercise bike was likely in place within his room but the question has to be asked overall, if this is a suitable situation for a professional sports person?

Morelos came through a positive covid test earlier this Summer and is now thought to be back at his home.

He did not travel to Sweden with the rest of the Rangers squad for the Champions League qualifier against Malmo on Tuesday evening.

Last week, Steven Gerrard would not set a date for Morelos return, adding:

Alfredo is ready and fit to start training once he is available to return he will rejoin sometime next week so the squad is looking really strong.

As things stand, this weekends clash with Dundee United is likely to come too soon for El Bufalo but he could be in contenton for a place in the squad for the return leg against Malmo.

Frustrations among citizens forced to endure yet more curbs on their freedoms and ability to work are reaching boiling point -- and protests against their governments' handling of the outbreaks have broken out in Malaysia and Thailand. Meanwhile, Myanmar is on the verge of collapse as a February military coup and ensuing bloody crackdown has shattered the health system and vaccinations have completely stalled.

While wealthier countries, like the United Kingdom and Singapore, are seeing renewed outbreaks, they have fully vaccinated more than half of their populations. Comparatively, Vietnam has fully vaccinated less than 1% of its population, Thailand around 5%, the Philippines 7.2%, and virus epicenter Indonesia 7.6%, according to Our World in Data.

More than a year and a half into the pandemic, the more contagious Delta variant is exposing the weaknesses of nations with low vaccine rates, even if they previously had control of the virus.

Perhaps nowhere in Southeast Asia is that flip more evident than in Vietnam.

But since late April, Vietnam has reported a sharp increase in Covid-19 infections. On Wednesday, Vietnam reported 7,623 new cases, down from 8,620 on Sunday with most new infections in Ho Chi Minh City, the Health Ministry said. In total, Vietnam has confirmed 177,813 cases, more than 85% of those were reported in the past month alone, according to data from Johns Hopkins University. Of Vietnam's 2,327 deaths, about half were reported in the past month.

The government has imposed strict lockdowns in the capital, Hanoi, and Ho Chi Minh City to try to curb further spread and Covid treatment centers have been set up to accommodate more patients.

But the outbreak has put pressure on the government to increase its vaccine supply and ramp up inoculations. So far, only 0.6% of Vietnam's 96 million population has been fully vaccinated, according to JHU.

Of its 354 million reported cases since the pandemic began, 1.2 million were recorded in the past month, according to JHU. On Wednesday, Indonesia surpassed 100,000 coronavirus deaths, becoming only the second country in Asia to do so. On Wednesday, 1,747 fatalities were reported by the Health Ministry and 35,867 cases.

If the spread continues unabated, experts say it could push Indonesia's health care system to the brink of disaster. Some fear the situation may be worse than the numbers show, because not enough people are getting tested for the virus. One local survey found that nearly half of the 10.6 million residents of the capital, Jakarta, may have contracted Covid-19.

The country is suffering a health crisis, with hospitals stretched to their limits, full cemeteries expanded to hold the Covid dead, and exhausted health care workers.

Experts say Indonesia is now reaping the costs of not implementing strict lockdowns nor investing enough in efficient contact-tracing systems.

Despite a national lockdown, Malaysia has also seen an exponential rise in cases and deaths, with the outbreak forcing a month-long suspension of Parliament.

Anger among the people is mounting. Hundreds broke coronavirus restrictions to protest in the capital, Kuala Lumpur, over the weekend against the government's handling of the outbreak and called on Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin to resign. Following the suspension of a special sitting of the legislature on Monday due to Covid, opposition lawmakers marched toward the Parliament building also demanding Muhyiddin's resignation.

Frustration over the mounting deaths, vaccine rates and economic pain is exacerbated by Malaysia's current political crisis, in which Muhyiddin's government appears on the verge of collapse after taking control of the ruling coalition following elections last year.

Last week, thousands of overworked Malaysian doctors went on strike over conditions in hospitals, saying they have been pushed to the brink, as beds and ventilators run low.

The protest came as total Covid cases in Malaysia surpassed 1 million with the country reporting its highest number of daily infections. On Wednesday, Malaysia reported a new record number of cases, with 19,819 new infections, according to the Health Ministry, up from about 7,000 a month ago. Covid deaths are also at record levels, with 257 reported on Wednesday.

Malaysia's vaccine rates have improved in the past month, especially compared to its regional neighbors. About 22.5% of people in Malaysia are fully vaccinated against Covid-19, according to Our World in Data.

Although it was the first country to report a Covid-19 case outside of China in January last year, Thailand kept its infection numbers low in 2020 thanks to successful containment measures.

This year, however, it is facing a much bigger challenge. After containing a second wave that started last December, Thailand is struggling to curb a third wave of infections that has pushed daily caseloads and death tolls to unprecedented levels. On Wednesday, Thailand reported a record high in daily confirmed cases, with 20,920 infections -- the second day of reporting over 20,000 cases, according to the Center for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA). Thailand also recorded 160 deaths, bringing the total death toll to 5,663.

"We may be unable to reduce the rate of infection just yet, but we hope to ease the bed situation in Bangkok and slow down the death rate," Supat said.

On Tuesday, Thailand extended its national lockdown until the end of the month to slow the rising cases. Now, 29 provinces have been placed under the strictest protocol, meaning 40% of the country's population will be under lockdown, according to CNN's calculation of data from the CCSA.

Prolonged economic pain and fears of rising Covid fatalities are taking a toll on Thai citizens. There was public outcry after several bodies were found on the streets of Bangkok and left lying on the road for hours before an ambulance retrieved them.

And thousands of people joined anti-government protests across the country on Sunday, calling for the resignation of Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha, whose government has been heavily criticized for its handling of the pandemic.

Thailand is aiming to vaccinate 50 million people by the end of the year. But according to data published by the CCSA, 23% of the country's 70 million people have received at least one dose of Covid-19 vaccine, while 5% are fully vaccinated.

On Thailand's border, Myanmar is collapsing under the double crisis of pandemic and military coup. There is a desperate oxygen shortage in the country, with families of the seriously ill queuing for oxygen or frantically searching online for Covid treatments.

Residents are choosing to self-treat at home, doctors say. If they do go to hospital they are often turned away as the facilities are running out of oxygen, treatments and beds, and there's not enough staff to care for patients, they said. The United Nations estimates only 40% of the country's health care facilities are still able to function.

Reported daily cases in Myanmar have risen from about 100 in early June to about 5,000 a day, with the total confirmed infections at 315,118, according to the World Health Organization. Myanmar has also reported 10,373 deaths.

Last week, Britain's UN Ambassador Barbara Woodward warned that half of Myanmar's 54 million people could be infected with Covid-19 in the next two weeks.

Adding to the trauma, those in the country say the military, which seized power in February, is wielding the Covid crisis against the people and as infections and deaths climb, the junta is escalating its attacks on doctors and health care workers, many of whom went on strike to protest the coup and have been forced into hiding to evade arrest.
