Hence we saved a lot of work in this merging so that my teaching partner could &#8220;supervise&#8221; the students and monitor them while I concentrated on the delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u6211\u4eec\u7f51\u8bfe\u7684\u7b2c\u4e00\u5802\u8bfe\u53ef\u4ee5\u8bf4\u662f\u86ee\u6df7\u4e71\u7684\u3002\u4e0a\u8bfe\u7684\u593430\u5206\u949f\u201c\u6ce2\u6f9c\u4e0d\u60ca\u201d\u3002\u6211\u4eec\u53ea\u662f\u8fdf\u4e86\u51e0\u5206\u949f\u5f00\u8bfe\uff0c\u56e0\u4e3a\u6211\u548c\u4e25\u8001\u5e08\u4e0d\u5f97\u4e0d\u6e05\u70b9\u4e24\u4e2a\u73ed\u7684\u5b66\u751f\u4eba\u6570\u3002\u5e78\u8fd0\u7684\u662f\uff0c\u9489\u9489\u5728\u76f4\u64ad\u5e73\u53f0\u5141\u8bb8\u6211\u4eec\u201d\u5408\u62fc\u201d\u4e24\u4e2a\u73ed\u7ea7\u4e3a\u4e00\u4e2a\u76f4\u64ad\u6d41\u7684\u6f14\u793a\u3002\u56e0\u6b64\uff0c\u6211\u4eec\u5728\u8fd9\u6b21\u5408\u5e76\u4e2d\u8282\u7701\u4e86\u5927\u91cf\u7684\u5de5\u4f5c\uff0c\u8fd9\u6837\u4e25\u8001\u5e08\u5c31\u53ef\u4ee5\u4e13\u6ce8\u201c\u76d1\u7763\u201d\u5b66\u751f\u4e0a\u8bfe\u7684\u60c5\u51b5\uff0c\u800c\u6211\u5219\u4e13\u6ce8\u4e8e\u8bfe\u7a0b\u7684\u6f14\u793a\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then our trouble started: some of the students reported that they were unable to get a good connection to DingTalk and on my end, with my own monitoring, I was informed by DingTalk that the connection I had was shaky.

Despite Mr. Yan&#8217;s urging at the &#8220;back&#8221; of the online class for everyone to &#8220;mute your mic&#8221;, during the 90 minutes class, we had many instances of interfering sounds: door slamming, people talking, traffic noise. It was to be expected as our students were all stuck at home, some would have to share facilities with siblings etc. Compound this issue with the fact that not all students were having access to stable and good internet connections and most had to use their mobile phones to attend classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u4e8e\u662f\u6211\u4eec\u7ee7\u7eed\u5728QQ\u7fa4\u4e0a\u804a\u5929\u76f4\u64ad\uff08\u5f53\u65f6\u66f4\u50cf\u662f\u89c6\u9891\u7fa4\u804a\uff09\u3002\u4e8b\u60c5\u662f\u8fd9\u6837\u7684\uff0c\u5728QQ\u5e73\u53f0\u4e0a\uff0c\u4e0d\u50cf\u9489\u9489\uff0c\u6211\u4e0d\u80fd\u628a\u5b66\u751f\u7684\u9ea6\u514b\u98ce\u9759\u97f3\u3002\u5c3d\u7ba1\u4e25\u8001\u5e08\u5728\u7f51\u7edc\u8bfe\u5802\u7684\u201c\u540e\u9762\u201d\u6566\u4fc3\u5927\u5bb6\u201c\u628a\u9ea6\u514b\u98ce\u9759\u97f3\u201d\uff0c\u4f46\u572890\u5206\u949f\u7684\u8bfe\u7a0b\u4e2d\uff0c\u6211\u4eec\u8fd8\u662f\u542c\u5230\u4e86\u5f88\u591a\u5e72\u6270\u7684\u58f0\u97f3\uff1a\u5f00\u95e8\u58f0\u3001\u8bf4\u8bdd\u58f0\u3001\u4ea4\u901a\u566a\u97f3\u7b49\u7b49\u3002\u8fd9\u662f\u610f\u6599\u4e4b\u4e2d\u7684\uff0c\u56e0\u4e3a\u6211\u4eec\u7684\u5b66\u751f\u90fd\u88ab\u56f0\u5728\u5bb6\u91cc\uff0c\u4e00\u4e9b\u540c\u5b66\u5c06\u4e0d\u5f97\u4e0d\u4e0e\u5144\u5f1f\u59d0\u59b9\u7b49\u5171\u7528\u8bbe\u65bd\u3002\u6b64\u5916\uff0c\u5e76\u975e\u6240\u6709\u5b66\u751f\u90fd\u6709\u7a33\u5b9a\u826f\u597d\u7684\u4e92\u8054\u7f51\u8fde\u63a5\uff0c\u5e76\u4e14\u5927\u90e8\u5206\u5b66\u751f\u4e0d\u5f97\u4e0d\u4f7f\u7528\u624b\u673a\u4e0a\u8bfe\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, we were still able to carry on with our class.

So we had 80 students in the online class, 79 of whom was tuned in to my class with one blabbing away and &#8220;fighting&#8221; with me for the attention of her course mates! Despite my repeated requests to my students to &#8220;<strong>check your mic and mute your mic NOW<\/strong>&#8220;, the blabbing female student was not listening and she continued! It took the combined efforts of Mr. Yan and our class leaders a good 15 minutes to locate this &#8220;blabbing&#8221; person!

All my Taiwanese colleagues received the order to return campus (subject to quarantine measures &#8212; this was a nightmare for many at the start, being &#8220;caged up&#8221; for weeks etc.). By then, my Zhaoqing City resident permit had expired. I needed a special letter of invitation from the provincial authority to get an entry visa. That took over 10 weeks to obtain. When this letter finally arrived, my rush to the Kuala Lumpur China Embassy&#8217;s visa centre proved to be fruitless &#8211; the nice manager at the visa centre advised us that the China authority were closing the boarder and even if we could get our visa, there were few flights (that cost at least \u00a59,000 or around MYR5,625, but mostly in the \u00a535,000 range for chartered flights) available. So I had to break the bad news to my colleague at the International Office of ZQU taking care of my case, Ms Zeng.

The most important thing was, with these set up, I ensured some sort of engagement from my students. In addition, these in-class quiz question and the scoring also helped in making sure students were learning progressively and we were not relying on one final examination to verify the learning attained by students (a practice that I, as an educator would try to avoid if possible). Rain Classroom also has a very effective way to log in students&#8217; activity. Hence I would require all students to log into system using a link that I would provide at the start of each class. If you are not signed in, you will be considered as &#8220;absent&#8221;. Of course in a few odd cases (students forgot to bring their mobile phone to class; mobile phone missing \/ damaged) I would take note of the class leader&#8217;s verification and marked this lot as &#8220;present&#8221;. However, this lot would not be able to take part in the in-class quiz (and was destined to lose the marks for these too).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u8fd9\u4e2a\u201c\u9886\u961f\u677f\u201d\u7ed9\u51fa\u4e86\u7ade\u4e89\u7684\u5143\u7d20\uff0c\u4ece\u800c\u4f7f\u6211\u7684\u8bb2\u8bfe\u6709\u70b9\u6e38\u620f\u5316\u3002\u6700\u91cd\u8981\u7684\u662f\uff0c\u6709\u4e86\u8fd9\u4e9b\u8bbe\u7f6e\uff0c\u6211\u786e\u4fdd\u4e86\u5b66\u751f\u4eec\u7684\u67d0\u79cd\u7a0b\u5ea6\u7684\u53c2\u4e0e\u3002\u6b64\u5916\uff0c\u8fd9\u4e9b\u8bfe\u5802\u6d4b\u9a8c\u95ee\u9898\u548c\u5206\u6570\u4e5f\u6709\u52a9\u4e8e\u786e\u4fdd\u5b66\u751f\u9010\u6b65\u5b66\u4e60\uff0c\u6211\u4eec\u6ca1\u6709\u4f9d\u9760\u4e00\u6b21\u6027\u7684\u671f\u672b\u8003\u8bd5\u6765\u9a8c\u8bc1\u5b66\u751f\u6240\u53d6\u5f97\u7684\u5b66\u4e60\u6210\u7ee9(\u5982\u679c\u53ef\u80fd\u7684\u8bdd\uff0c\u4f5c\u4e3a\u4e00\u540d\u6559\u80b2\u5bb6\uff0c\u6211\u4f1a\u5c3d\u91cf\u907f\u514d\u8fd9\u79cd\u505a\u6cd5)\u3002\u96e8\u8bfe\u5802\u4e5f\u6709\u4e00\u4e2a\u975e\u5e38\u6709\u6548\u7684\u65b9\u5f0f\u6765\u8bb0\u5f55\u5b66\u751f\u7684\u8bfe\u5802\u6d3b\u52a8\u3002\u56e0\u6b64\uff0c\u6211\u4f1a\u8981\u6c42\u6240\u6709\u7684\u5b66\u751f\u5728\u6bcf\u8282\u8bfe\u5f00\u59cb\u524d\u4f7f\u7528\u6211\u63d0\u4f9b\u7684\u94fe\u63a5\u767b\u5f55\u5230\u96e8\u8bfe\u5802\u7cfb\u7edf\u3002\u5982\u679c\u5b66\u751f\u6ca1\u6709\u5728\u96e8\u8bfe\u5802\u7b7e\u5230\uff0c\u4ed6\u5c06\u88ab\u89c6\u4e3a\u201c\u7f3a\u5e2d\u201d\u3002\u5f53\u7136\uff0c\u5728\u4e00\u4e9b\u5947\u602a\u7684\u60c5\u51b5\u4e0b(\u5982\u5b66\u751f\u5fd8\u4e86\u5e26\u624b\u673a\u6765\u4e0a\u8bfe\uff1b\u624b\u673a\u4e22\u5931\/\u635f\u574f\u7b49\u7b49)\uff0c\u6211\u4f1a\u5728\u8003\u8651\u4e86\u73ed\u957f\u7684\u6838\u5b9e\u540e\uff0c\u5c06\u8fd9\u6279\u4eba\u6807\u8bb0\u4e3a\u201c\u5728\u573a\u201d\u3002\u7136\u800c\uff0c\u8fd9\u6279\u4eba\u5c06\u65e0\u6cd5\u53c2\u4e0e\u8bfe\u5802\u6d4b\u9a8c(\u800c\u4e14\u6ce8\u5b9a\u4e5f\u4f1a\u56e0\u6b64\u5931\u53bb\u5206\u6570)\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8220;randomness&#8221; in the appearance of the in-class quiz questions also served one good purpose: students would have to pay attention as they would not be forewarned when my question would spring up.

But I did mange to get a reasonably good microphone that has done a good job in filtering out background noises.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u65e9\u57282020\u5e745\u6708\uff0c\u6211\u5c31\u77e5\u9053\u6211\u8981\u4e70\u7684\u6700\u91cd\u8981\u7684\u8bbe\u5907\u662f\u4e00\u4e2a\u534a\u4e13\u4e1a\u6027\u7684\u9ea6\u514b\u98ce\u3002\u5ec9\u4ef7\u7684\u65e7\u9ea6\u514b\u98ce\u6240\u5e26\u6765\u7684\u5e72\u6270\u5b9e\u5728\u592a\u5927\u4e86\u3002\u4f46\u5f53\u65f6\u9a6c\u6765\u897f\u4e9a\u662f\u5904\u4e8e\u201c\u884c\u52a8\u7ba1\u5236\u4ee4&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;Movement&nbsp;Control&nbsp;Order\u201d&nbsp;(\u51e0\u5468\u6765\u51e0\u4e4e\u5bf9\u5168\u56fd\u8303\u56f4\u5185\u7684\u4eba\u5458\u6d41\u52a8\u5b9e\u884c\u4e86\u5168\u9762\u6027\u7684\u9650\u5236)\uff0c\u5373\u4fbf\u662f\u5728\u7f51\u4e0a\u8d2d\u7269\uff0c\u4e5f\u662f\u76f8\u5f53\u56f0\u96be\u7684\u3002\u4f46\u5728\u201c\u884c\u52a8\u7ba1\u5236\u4ee4\u201d\u653e\u5bbd\u540e\u6211\u786e\u5b9e\u5f97\u5230\u4e86\u4e00\u4e2a\u76f8\u5f53\u597d\u7684\u9ea6\u514b\u98ce\uff0c\u5b83\u5728\u6ee4\u9664\u80cc\u666f\u566a\u97f3\u65b9\u9762\u505a\u5f97\u5f88\u597d\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The camera that came with the laptop was another issue.

For group assignments, I would just post the graded papers on DingTalk chat group for students to download.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u5b66\u751f\u4eec\u53ef\u4ee5\u5c1d\u8bd5\u5728\u7ebf\u6d4b\u9a8c\uff0c\u8fd9\u4e9b\u6d4b\u9a8c\u901a\u5e38\u4f1a\u7531\u7cfb\u7edf\u8bc4\u5206\u8fd9\u6837\u4ed6\u4eec\u5c31\u53ef\u4ee5\u91cd\u65b0\u63d0\u4ea4\uff08\u6211\u4e00\u822c\u8bbe\u5b9a\u6700\u591a3\u6b21\u63d0\u4ea4\u673a\u4f1a\uff09\u6765\u63d0\u9ad8\u81ea\u5df1\u7684\u6210\u7ee9\u3002\u5bf9\u4e8e\u4e00\u4e9b\u4f5c\u4e1a\uff0c\u5b66\u751f\u4eec\u4f1a\u628a\u8bba\u6587\u4e0a\u4f20\u5230\u8fd9\u4e9b\u5e73\u53f0\u4e0a\uff0c\u4ee5\u4fbf\u6211\u8bc4\u5206\uff08\u5305\u62ec\u8bc4\u8bba\u548c\u53cd\u9988\uff09\uff0c\u7136\u540e\u6211\u5c06\u8fd9\u4e9b\u8bba\u6587\u8fd4\u8fd8\u7ed9\u5b66\u751f\uff08\u901a\u8fc7\u5728\u4e2d\u56fd\u7684\u5728\u7ebf\u5b58\u50a8\u5e73\u53f0\uff0c\u5982\u817e\u8baf\u5fae\u4e91\uff0c\u767e\u5ea6\u4e91\u76d8\uff0c\u963f\u91cc\u4e91\u76d8\uff09\u3002\u5bf9\u4e8e\u5c0f\u7ec4\u4f5c\u4e1a\uff0c\u6211\u4f1a\u76f4\u63a5\u628a\u8bc4\u5206\u540e\u7684\u6587\u6863\u53d1\u5230\u73ed\u9489\u9489\u804a\u5929\u7fa4\u91cc\uff0c\u4f9b\u540c\u5b66\u4eec\u4e0b\u8f7d\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The beauty of online submission \/online quizzes is that there would be a paper trail.

Putting this status up in DingTalk chat group had one great advantage: I could use peer pressure to &#8220;force&#8221; the &#8220;usual suspects&#8221; (yes, in each class there would be at least one such individual) to comply. As almost everything of this framework was &#8220;transparent&#8221;, I minimized the chances of students giving lame excuses for their not submitting their work on time. Unlike hardcopies of assignment papers, I always had a copy of each students graded work. This made reviewing of students&#8217; performance for the end-of-semester final grading a lot more efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u6709\u4e86\u5728\u7ebf\u63d0\u4ea4\u6846\u67b6\uff0c\u6211\u80fd\u591f\u5728\u622a\u6b62\u65e5\u671f\u4e34\u8fd1\u65f6\u76d1\u63a7\u63d0\u4ea4\u72b6\u6001\uff0c\u4ee5\u63d0\u9192\u548c\u201c\u8ffd\u8d76\u201d\u90a3\u4e9b\u4ecd\u7136\u843d\u540e\u7684\u4eba\u3002\u628a\u8fd9\u4e2a\u72b6\u6001\u653e\u5230\u9489\u9489\u804a\u5929\u7fa4\u91cc\u6709\u4e00\u4e2a\u5f88\u5927\u7684\u597d\u5904\uff1a\u6211\u53ef\u4ee5\u5229\u7528\u540c\u5b66\u4eec\u7684\u538b\u529b\u6765\u201c\u4fc3\u4f7f\u201d\u8fd9\u4e9b\u201c\u60ef\u72af\u201d\u9075\u5b88\u89c4\u5219\uff08\u662f\u7684\uff0c\u5728\u6bcf\u4e2a\u73ed\u5c06\u81f3\u5c11\u6709\u4e00\u4e2a\u8fd9\u6837\u7684\u4e2a\u201d\u60ef\u72af\u201c\uff09\uff01\u7531\u4e8e\u8fd9\u4e2a\u6846\u67b6\u51e0\u4e4e\u6240\u6709\u7684\u7a0b\u5e8f\u90fd\u662f\u201c\u900f\u660e\u7684\u201d\uff0c\u6211\u5c3d\u91cf\u51cf\u5c11\u4e86\u5b66\u751f\u4e0d\u6309\u65f6\u63d0\u4ea4\u4f5c\u4e1a\u7684\u8e69\u811a\u501f\u53e3\u7684\u673a\u4f1a\u3002\u4e0d\u50cf\u7eb8\u8d28\u7684\u4f5c\u4e1a\uff0c\u6211\u603b\u662f\u6709\u6bcf\u4e00\u4e2a\u5df2\u7ecf\u8bc4\u5206\u7684\u5b66\u751f\u63d0\u4ea4\u7684\u4f5c\u4e1a\u526f\u672c\u3002\u8fd9\u4f7f\u5f97\u5bf9\u5b66\u751f\u671f\u672b\u6210\u7ee9\u7684\u56de\u987e\u53d8\u5f97\u66f4\u6709\u6548\u7387\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"CYN live online class shot by \u90c9\u5fd7\u822a\u535a\u58eb\uff08Dr. Xing)\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YsMdxHrRSiw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The video above was captured by my kind colleague, Associate Professor Xing Zhi-Hang (<a href=\"https:\/\/sky.zqu.edu.cn\/info\/1015\/2485.htm\">\u90c9\u5fd7\u822a\u526f\u6559\u6388<\/a>\uff09when he was supervising my &#8220;Professional English&#8221; class.
