[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Jun-kyung] On the 19th, the Jeonnam Provincial Office of Education conducted blended learning (remote classes + in-person classes) training with the participation of 65 teachers from the western region of Jeonnam.

This training was organized to help frontline schools, which are conducting both remote and in-person classes due to COVID-19, expand interactive classes and implement substantial blended learning.

The training was conducted through curriculum restructuring methods and practical exercises for teachers, utilizing future education platforms such as ▲Zoom ▲Google Meet ▲Teams to enhance understanding. It also involved considering blended curriculum suitable for each school's situation and sharing cases.

A teacher who participated in the training said, “By leveraging the characteristics of programs like ZOOM, Google Classroom, and MS Teams to expand real-time video classes, it was very helpful in finding ways to utilize them,” and added, “I will practice to ensure creative and flexible curriculum operation in situations where in-person and remote classes are combined.”

Jung Jong-hyuk, Director of Elementary Education, said, “We will continuously conduct blended learning training, analyze the results, and strengthen on-site support to provide multifaceted assistance,” and added, “We hope that blended learning will take root in the field, allowing students’ voices to be heard and growth through happy learning to occur.”
