[NEWS] ACAD-HO; Virtual Meetings in LMS are just "Orientation"

-




Manila, Philippines

It's been a week since the "New Normal" in AMAES commenced. The full-online setup was their response to make sure that learning will continue for the students amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.

However, LMS issues ranging from access inability to content matters raised in just one week since the opening. Concerns are treated seriously by the management to further the development of a more effective and efficient system. 

The LMS added a new feature that lets the students meet the Online Learning Coordinator (OLC) with their online classmates virtually via Zoom. Yet, some students cannot join the session because the room is always at max capacity. The OLCs in LMS cater not only local campus students, but nationwide. This issue causes panic to those who are not able to attend the virtual meeting link embedded in their LMS. 

To clarify the issue, the ACAD-HO says that Virtual Classes conducted are only "Orientation" and Advisory meetings since Full-Online Learning (Asynchronous) is already taking place. Modules and assessments are already available, and as such, students should not depend on virtual sessions.

"Virtual sessions are only an activity to have interaction with OLCs and their classmates. But, we were instructed not to do lectures anymore as all contents are already provided in the LMS. OLCs will only be there for monitoring, to remind them if they already finished their quizzes and exams, make periodic advice, but not to act as their respective teachers." Dean Roger Reyes of AMACC Makati added.
