How teacher training in schools make virtual classrooms fun

Teachers’ ability to teach remotely needs a combination of technological and pedagogical skills. Teachers must learn how to combine multiple modes of delivery, that is, online, offline, and blended to facilitate learning with efficacy, especially in the world we are living in right now. 

Teachers are expected to be trained to a T in every circumstance. Before the lockdown, they were expected to conduct classes with precision. After the lockdown, well, nothing changed! They still are expected to conduct impeccable classes that show great results.

In a traditional education system, certificate courses or degree programmes to teach in schools sufficed. But is this enough in a pandemic-struck world?

What changes?

Ever since the education system shifted online, teachers seem lost. They are seen struggling with keeping students engaged or for that matter make them attend the class. The online structure was a clear failure for students as well as teachers. While students often get distracted, teachers are not well-equipped to make remote learning interesting.

For educators, the COVID-19 pandemic has been a challenge, one for which no preconfigured playbook can guide appropriate responses. World Bank concurs that the ongoing crisis is an opportunity to build back better and consider to help teachers not only cope through the crisis but also become better equipped with the skills to succeed in the wake of it.

World Bank has also given a clear strategy for schools to help teachers cope with the crisis.

If a school manages to train its teachers successfully, the entire dynamics of online learning change. Proper know-how of communication tools, learning management systems, can bring efficiency in learning. When a teacher is properly trained, deploying the engaging features of virtual learning, such as audio-visual lessons, quizzes, etc. becomes easy and students get keen to learn more.
