In this weeks class we talked about distributed learning. From my understanding distributed learning is what the majority of Canadian university students are doing right now, i.e. doing school online and from home. In breakout rooms during class we discussed the positives and negative of online schooling, I will attach a screenshot below. For me, online learning has its ups and downs – I get to spend more time with my pets, wear sweatpants, eat during class, and I don’t have to commute to UVic. But there are still quite a few negatives that sour my online experience – same place/same thing everyday, teachers/classes that can’t adapt to online learning, and no time for relaxation. While the previously mentioned are my personal feelings towards online schooling it was good to hear that my peers were having similar experiences.
