I teach Marketing Management part-time. I tried to lecture 55 students on google hangout, using the chat function.

While the students got engaged in the lesson by asking questions and commenting on key points, the content or topics that could be delivered was limited. This is because you have to type everything.

However, I felt that that students found it easy to understand the concepts explained. Interestingly, a number of students did say it was better than they expected. And got comments like ‘good class’. (This never happens in normal classes. ) And a number of students suggested we use audio. I have a tutorial class next. So i am thinking of using audio (in google hangout) and google docs. Based on that will conduct the following lecture.

Hi Shim , just wanted to give you a feedback of the class I took yesterday. With all the support provided by CETE , I was able to successfully carry out my online session finally.

Thanks to you all , you are all doing a wonderful job.

For the class , I used google hangout , most turned up for class and I was able to carry the lecture just as I would in a f2f lecture with slides and there were no internet issues or

technical glitches as such. All were able to see the slides and heard my voice clearly. At the end of the class , I even took a feedback and the feedback was very positive.

For the tutorials I’m uploading on moodle and they are to submit to me their work , through email. I am also available on chat for their doubts and questions during their tutorial time.

In addition to this I’m suggesting to them what additional resources ( videos , readings etc) they can watch or read before or even after the lecture.

I used zoom for around 17 students. No issues and studebts stayed back for discussions plus oit was a bit easier with recording all. And students’ feedback was good. I guided beforehand in Viber and they were ready when I hosted the lecture. Some students used phones as 2 to 3 were at work and just took break for the sessions.

Just finished my second online class, I used “Zoom”. 35 students participated, no complications tonight. Alhamdhu Lillahi. Zoom is very useful if you use ipad or tab. recorded sessions can be shared too.

Successfully conducted the first virtual class with at MNU.I tried the Google Hangouts the last night. Out of 40 students of my Regular Evening EST103 class, I was able to contact with 37 students, but not in one session, had to divide the class into two. was able to contact maximum 20 in one session.

Conducted a lecture sharing the ppt presentation via screen sharing. Session went well for those who were in contact.

Thanks to Google for providing distance learning solutions especially during COVID-19 to help us stay connected. Looking forward to shifting to advanced Hangouts Meet features that include the ability to host larger classes with more members.

We are experimenting. Today we are trying a trial session with students to see how to avoid any difficulties during actual class online. I think this is a good time to work online even when things are ok. I just had a trial session for few mins with two class representatives. We had a discussion on how we will go ahead in the online class which we will schedule later in the week. Then we tried the screen sharing options. This I did to familiarize them and myself so that we are a bit comfortable in the actual session. I asked students to get themselves in groups and try it before the class. This is a bit relieving.

Due to the small size of my class MKT 205, and for better student engagement I have been using Skype group conferencing. It has been rather effective as well.
