Life evolves and so everything thereof, we need to understand that every challenge (e.g covid-19) came with equal blessings but it takes openness of mind to digest and identify it. So many activities have gone online this days as a result of restrictions placed on Individuals in order to curb the covid-19, many organizations does their work online and likewise many schools. I support the motion that government and individual bodies needs to look into the idea of online activities holistically and vet out ways it can be a blessing for everyone. It is not a must to be at the four wall of school before we can learn, and I think it will be a plus because we will be able to do many other things while we're still pursuing a degree, one should not be stuck in school just for a degree. It should be an holistical view and will be moderated n perfect over time.
nah Nigerian students are tired of the four walls they've seen for close to a year now grin.

You mean Arts and Social sciences students are still attending physical? This is insane. I'm typing this from covid isolation, my relation is hospitalised. School authorities should use their senses.

Considering the current Covid19 increased virulence and the obvious lack of a vaccine in Nigeria. it might be a good idea for students of social sciences, education, business and commerce, law etc to go back home in a bid to depopulate the Universities.

The reason is majority of these programmes can be conveniently taught online. As a matter of fact, the recent zoom update is quite better improved to support teaching. E.g a large class of students can now breakout into different breakout sessions therefore improving the experience.

The only students that should be retained in school at this moment in my opinion should be those of the science and technology, medicine and surgical departments who need to use laboratories and can't simulate such an educational experience online.

I disagree with you on this. To start with,how many students can afford data for zoom video calls?. Talk is indeed cheap
If the students can afford transport and feeding in a normal session, they can afford the data for online classes.

the HigherEd op is a self acclaimed graduate of covenant university, he is an ardent member of winners chapel.
During their Shiloh programme there were reports of COVID-19 infection spreading through the numerous worshippers that attended the programme. The same op here was still the one that opened his dirty gutter mouth to type trash that the gates of hell cannot prevail against the church, he even went on to proof that Covid 19 is a scam and buttressed points to proof COVID-19 cannot be spread in the church.
Now he has come up with a trashy write up and one useless foolish mod took it to frontpage.
Na heavy thunder go fire am.

Are you deliberately blind to the "almost" or you're just whining? Well, I don't expect you to know these things. Who no go no go know. Engineering is not English or sociology.

I don't banter words with people that lies just to score cheap and unnecessary points. What is the world ranking of the best Nigerian university?

Even Cambridge university engineering faculty doesn't do engineering practical almost everyday.. Even the university I went to here in Australia, The Nigerian guys then who were in Engineering faculty did not mention every day practical. And the uni is about 150 below in world ranking. Please stop talking

Online classes can't work with some Arts courses too because they are also practical incline and they always use their Studio, Stage, and laboratory Eg, Music, Theatre Arts, Creative /Fine Arts ,Linguistics, Foreign Languages etc.

So they won't feed at home?
??
So how much does the average student spend in a normal semester?
The cost of renting a room or getting hostel, the cost of feeding, the cost of handouts, the cost of transport and other miscellaneous spendings.

Is it 5k, 10k, 20k or more?

Someone here pointed out that a zoom call uses about 400mb
Let's say someone has about 2 classes per day
That's 800mb per day.
With an mtn #5k or the *121# #3500 per month plan you get 20gb. Which if used (20000÷800)=25.
Is enough for 25 days of online classes. Approximately 1 month

The average semester is usually about 3 months.
That means about #15k - #10500 of data should be enough to cover for your online classes in a semester.

Even for school no be every student dey come class and even people who dey go class some go still sleep... So that talk of no data is crap.
Zoom can be recorded and those who cannot be there live should download at night using Night sub...

The money they will spend in school on transport and all other pocket money should be used to buy data... Zoom doesn't consume too much if you know how to set your phone data usage well.
