Over the past few months, COVID-19 has caused great uncertainty around the world affecting people's lives in all aspects.Education is also greatly affected. With students all turning to online instruction, live-streamed classes have become popular among schools and universities. 1.
In China, the use of e-learning is unusual not only in size but also in depth. 2. For another, it proves how modern technology changes the way students are educated and encourages further research and development of educational technology to introduce virtual communities between students and teachers.
In fact,online instruction as an alternative teaching mode has been expanding rapidly in recent years.Many Chinese start-ups focus on AI applications in online courses,and various online educational platforms are set up.3. The online education platform MOOC,where a wide variety of courses is available,has attracted the world's top universities to upload and share resources with students around the world.
Compared with formal instruction,online courses save abundant costs and create a flexible teaching mode(模式）－homeschooling,especially during a crisis. 4.For example,rural students with no access to the Internet and television might be left behind in this new mode.When e-learning becomes the only solution for delivering knowledge,the existing divide could be widened,further deepening education inequality.Also,the quality of teaching becomes heavily dependent on uncertain factors,such as a stable connection to the Internet and technical skills.
5.Yet,the pandemic(流行病）has undoubtedly affected the teaching style in a sweeping manner and given educators around the world plenty of time and space to think about the alternative educational modes.
A.However,online teaching has its own disadvantages.
B.The traditional face-to-face teaching style has been challenged.
C.Chinese colleges and universities started the spring term online.
D.Moreover,online education is fairly acceptable to college education.
E.Online teaching provides a chance to reconsider the current education system.
F.For one thing,the impressive practice sets a good example to other countries.
G.So,it's early to predict how the future of the education system will look like.
