Large institutions are transforming online, how to deal with small and medium-sized institutions

Because of the outbreak of new coronavirus pneumonia, the offline training classes all over the country have been suspended. In response to the epidemic, educational enterprises such as New Oriental and tal stopped offline courses and transferred them to the online so that students would not be delayed by the epidemic.

There is no doubt that online transformation is the best solution at present, but large-scale institutions can transform rapidly, and many small and medium-sized offline institutions have never had online education experience, how can they transform rapidly and successfully?

Edu SOHO has experience in helping 100000 training institutions transform online education, and our advice is: live.

There are various ways of online teaching, among which video, audio and other ways need to spend a lot of production time, while live broadcast is the fastest way for educational institutions and teachers to start teaching.

How to choose various live broadcast forms?

Nowadays, the live broadcast business of online education has been very mature, with strong interaction. It can be taught through courseware, video, voice, interactive Q & A and other ways. And teachers and students as long as the computer can class, the threshold is low.

In the form of live broadcast, there are now common large class, small class, one-to-one and other modes, which are consistent with the offline class type, and the mechanism can quickly move the offline class to the online.

We understand the differences between the following types of live broadcasting:

1. One on one live class

The online 1-to-1 live teaching mode moves the traditional one-to-one tutoring teaching and service links online. Teachers and students conduct video live teaching one-to-one, which brings a good overall experience to students and is easy to be accepted by students. If the first mock exam is used online, the online one can adapt quickly.

Because of the high cost of teachers, one-to-one live class is more suitable for high unit price courses. At the same time, its one-to-one strong interaction is also applicable to the K12 field which needs to mobilize the participation of students through interaction.

2. One to many live class

Small class is similar to one-to-one live class, but from one teacher to one student, it has become one teacher to two to ten students. For educational institutions, small class live broadcast is undoubtedly more cost-effective than one-to-one live broadcast. For some parents and students, small class is moderately priced, which can not only communicate with teachers directly, but also form a class interaction atmosphere with other students, which is also a better choice.

In addition, the live broadcast of small class will pay more attention to the students' preview before class and review after class. Therefore, if the small class live broadcast mode is adopted, the organization needs to pay attention to arranging appropriate amount of homework before and after class for students to improve the classroom effect.

Small class live classes can be said to be a compromise between classroom experience and cost. Now they are commonly used in k12 education.

3. Large class live class

Compared with one-on-one and small class live broadcast, it is a large class live broadcast with dozens to hundreds of people. As a live teaching method, the advantage of large class live broadcast is also its interactive experience. At the same time, compared with one-to-one live broadcast and small class live broadcast, one teacher in large class can teach dozens of hundreds of people, and the utilization rate of teachers is higher.

However, due to the large number of live class students, teachers can't pay attention to them one by one, so the application of K12 is less in the field of strong participation, but more in adult vocational education, interest education and other fields.

How to better serve students in live class

In the live class, how does the teacher serve the students? Especially in the live class, how does a teacher serve many students? Here are some suggestions for live teaching.

1. Large class teaching and small class service

For large class live classes, teaching and service teams can be separated to form a mode of large class teaching and small class service. Taking an online school in edusoho for vocational qualification certificate training as an example, they have both a teacher team and a teaching assistant team, in which the teacher team is only responsible for live teaching, while the teaching assistant team is responsible for services. They divide every 6-10 students into a group to establish a service group, and each group has a teaching assistant to provide services such as answering questions, correcting homework and commenting. In this way, the service cost can be effectively reduced and the quality of teaching service can be guaranteed.

2. Emphasis on interaction in class

One of the major characteristics of live class is timely interaction, but especially in the field of K12, in order to strengthen the participation of the course, teachers need to insert more interactive links in the course. For example, when the teacher talks about the key knowledge in the live broadcast of Zhenge physics in edusoho online school, he will let the students "buckle 1" to feedback whether they understand it; while another teacher will insert various laughter points in the live broadcast to arouse the interest of the students. At the same time, it can also flexibly use the questions and answers in the live broadcast system to improve the classroom atmosphere.

3. Pay attention to service before and after class

In addition to the interaction and service in the live class, the organization also needs to pay attention to the service before and after class. Institutions can establish communities through wechat and other tools, and professional teachers and operators can operate and answer questions to enhance the activity and recognition of students. At the same time, the community is also conducive to the live broadcast notice before class and the question answering after class.

All in all, as a strong interactive and low threshold online teaching method, live broadcast can make educational institutions transform online quickly and realize non-stop school in the epidemic environment.

Finally, in order to help educational institutions get through the difficulties, edu SOHO also provided free online teaching platform and live broadcast service for primary and secondary education institutions in Hubei Province before the end of the epidemic, joined hands and contributed to the national education cause.
