Hwasun-gun Agricultural Education "Fully Transitioned to Online"

Exciting and Moving... Enjoyable Agricultural Education Learning

[Hwasun=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Young-gyun] Hwasun County (Governor Gu Chung-gon) is switching agricultural education entirely to an online format to protect the safety of trainees from COVID-19.

Until now, the Hwasun Agricultural Technology Center has been conducting the 13th Agricultural University course online since July due to COVID-19.

At the end of July, during quarantine level 1 (social distancing in daily life), education resumed while complying with quarantine guidelines, but as COVID-19 spread nationwide again and the situation worsened, it switched entirely to non-face-to-face education.

Accordingly, the Agricultural Technology Center will introduce real-time video education following the online education.

Real-time video education combines the advantages of online education with real-time communication. Instructors and trainees connect to the same platform at the same time to communicate in real time from theoretical education to Q&A and opinion sharing.

First, in September, item-specific technical education (tomato, microorganism courses) will be conducted via video education.

To ensure smooth progress, the Agricultural Technology Center plans to help trainees familiarize themselves with the course methods in advance through phone calls, Band notices, emails, etc., and distribute textbooks using a drive-thru method.

An official from the Agricultural Technology Center said, "We are improving inconveniences and introducing various educational methods so that farmers have no difficulty receiving education," adding, "We will strive to provide practical help in line with the With COVID-19 era."

Meanwhile, the Hwasun Agricultural Technology Center produces useful farming technology information as card news and provides it through the Agricultural Technology Center website and SNS.
