The development of the coronavirus has radically changed our ways of teaching and learning.  Hong Kong school routines have been all been affected. Thankfully, although face-to-face teaching has been suspended,  online learning allows us continue with our lessons at home.  

Dr. Maxwell Ho, Lecturer of the Department of Education Policy and Leadership, is happy to share with you some tips for teaching online:

1. Avoid reading froma script
   - Mind your speaking pace; not too fast!
2. Pause for thought
   - Pause every 5-8 minutes or whenever an important point is introduced to allow spacefor thinking
3. Stimulate students thinking and maintain learning interest
   - Ask questions of different levels 
   - Give examples of common mistakes
   - Provide related exercises to enhance students’ learning
4. Provide feedback
   - Keep track of student learning progress on interactive platform and give timely feedback 
5. Increase personal interaction
   - Give more recognitions and praises to students
   - Use students’ names

 The effects of the Coronavirus pandemic can be seen and felt in every part of Hong Kong society. FEHD has put together a series of articles, written by experts in parenting, wellbeing, teaching and learning, to help you through the crisis.
