A year ago, CORONA VIRUS had spread in the whole world and this spread oblige the people to stay at home and work from home which means work online. Before corona we weren't able to use most of the technological instruments such as: zoom, google classroom, google forms....etc. But when online teaching had started we were obliged to work with it and this helps us a lot. I can open my class while sitting and explain the lesson comfortably. I can also as a student attend my classes while sitting and drinking coffee. I can post the assessment on the students emails while before it is necessary to correct the students agendas. Also, I can use google forms to do an exam which can correct the exam and directly put the mark. But before our job was to correct the exam papers and then put the marks. Also, before some students don't follow the rules and answer some questions without raising their hands and without taking permission but now by zoom or other application the teacher could mute all the class and whenever someone wants to answer she/he could unmute him/her and allow her/him to answer. It makes the teaching and the learning process easier. It helps us improve our skills by attending and participating in many workshops, presentations that improves our skills. This helps us in creating ways to engage our students in learning. In addition to that, it helps us manage our time and be more organized.
I agree with you Lama, technology facilitated a lot of issues concerning the teaching process but yet some difficulties also arises, like we're putting more effort to make students motivated especially that we couldn't see them or know if they are interacting with us or not.
