Many schools across the country have shut their doors due to the coronavirus outbreak. This puts teachers and students in new situation. They are turning to online learning. For some students, this is a new experience. Here are a few helpful tips.
1. Find a quiet place
Getting ready for a video lesson? Your first step is finding a quiet place to set up. Choose a place where nobody or nothing will take your attention away.
2. Set goal(目标)for yourself
Before class starts, set a goal for yourself. A goal gets your mind ready to learn. It gives you an extra purpose in class. It can even help you focus on what your teacher is saying.
3. Check: Are you muted?
Before the lesson starts, mute yourself! Background noises may not sound loud on your side. But even tiny sounds can be louder through speakers!
4. Practice active listening
Here are ways to practice active listening: Keep your eyes on the screen, ________ looking around the room. Nod, smile and react to what you're hearing.
5. Follow your teacher's instructions
Usually your teacher can see you raise your hand. That's not so easy on a video classroom. So be sure to follow instructions. Your teacher will let you know how to show that you want to ask or answer a question.
6. Keep calm and troubleshoot
Has something gone wrong during? Screen froze? Bumped(被挤出)from the class? App crashed? Don't be nervous! Problems like this will happen. It is not the end of the world. Try logging(登录)back on, check your WiFi or restart your computer if you need to. If all else fails, keep calm-and try logging on again!
