Let's Attend Classes at Home... Yeongdeungpo-gu, Online Multi-Person Video Lectures View original image


[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Yeongdeungpo-gu (Mayor Chae Hyun-il) has introduced a real-time multi-faceted video class system for the first time among Seoul’s autonomous districts and is conducting online video lectures at the Convergence Talent Education Center.


In line with strengthened social distancing measures, the district is offering the spring semester program of the Convergence Talent Education Center as online lectures ahead of the online school opening scheduled to start on the 9th.


The program targets local elementary students (grades 3 to 6), middle school students, and adults. The elementary classes include robotics, 3D printing, virtual and augmented reality, Entry Python, and YouTuber classes; middle school classes include 3D maker and hardware coding classes; and adult classes include leather crafting and coding classes.


Students attend real-time multi-faceted video lectures by accessing the related apps on their home computers or personal mobile phones.


To help students adapt to remote learning, the district conducted a pilot operation of winter semester supplementary classes (robotics, YouTuber, 3D printing) via video lectures from March 30 to April 4.


After addressing shortcomings found during the pilot, the official semester started on the 6th, and online video classes will continue until the offline school opening.


If students are unable to attend classes, the district plans to post private videos on Band for viewing to prevent any gaps in learning.



Chae Hyun-il, Mayor of Yeongdeungpo-gu, stated, “We have launched online courses to proactively respond to changes in the educational environment caused by COVID-19,” and added, “We will prepare various programs to minimize the academic gap for students in the region.”
