Abstract:
During the outbreak of Covid-19 situation, the teachers and the students are continuing their
journey through online platforms as an alternative of the previous system. Due to the change
in education system both teachers and students has to undergo with some major challenges.
The aim of this project is to investigate how the teachers conduct online classes in English and
the perceptions of the students towards observing the classes, while considering the present
situation of both teachers and students. After observing two classes and conducting one class
in online, I found that the condition of conducting and observing online classes especially in
English is a bit complicated. As the online platforms have become popular after the outbreak
of the pandemic situation, many students are still in short of necessary devices and knowledge.
The teachers conducted their classes through video apps and provided all the lesson materials
in other online platforms. Postsecondary students are in lack of standard digital devices and
trainings hence both the students and the teachers have to face problems during the class.
However, the teachers tried to provide the students communicative learning so that the students
could cope up with the lessons according to the objective. The teachers helped the students
with their technical difficulties and lesson materials and extra learning. This report will provide
a general view of online learning and teaching in English of Bangladesh. Some
recommendations are given on the basis of class observation along with few overall findings
about the observation and class conduction. Few strengths and weaknesses have also been
found during the class observation time which will provide an understanding of improvements.
