“Although my school tried online teaching a few years
ago, we haven’t done it on this scale before. All of our
teachers and students are now involved,” said Zheng Jinhong,
a high school English teacher in Zhejiang province.
“There’s no choice,” said Jessie Xie,
a 24-year-old high school teacher
living in Chengdu City.

“I like online teaching because I have more
freedom at home,” said Xu, who began her
all-day courses via DingTalk this week.
https://www.techinasia.com/chinas-online-learning-coronavirus
“My motivation to study is stronger when my
classmates are around me and all working very
hard. Sometimes I zone out.”

Working mom Chen Yan has taken to
installing a surveillance camera at home
to see what her 12-year-old son is up to
during the day while she’s at the office in
the mainland city of Shaoguan, in
Guangdong province.
So far, she’s caught him doing everything
but studying, including napping while
live-streamed lessons play in the
background. “We can’t hear a single
sentence from the teacher smoothly given
the slow Internet,” she said. “And I’m sure
the teacher won’t notice if my son is
listening in a 60-student class.”
