Give 3 days holiday for students attending online classes!!
The Issue
With extraordinary situation that we are in and the world is trying to adjust to these circumstances we have totally over looked one of the most essential part of the society which is the well being of students, long hours on zoom 6 days a week has significantly affected the mental health of students, questions such as zoom fatigue and the imapacts of these changes aren't talked about.
Reasons why Online class (Zoom, Google Meet) is detrimental to the students and repored by forbes, national education association and reflector.uindy.edu
1.Extended period of screen time effects mental health diretly and is unhealthy
2. Limited level of interaction and use of just 2 senses isnt the ideal situation for students to learn, inclusion of smell, touch and taste is very essential to learn.
3. With minimun face to face interaction and so much time being spend on zoom and closed door has lead to social Isolation
4.Zoom doesn’t facilitate the critical brain breaks that children need for development
5.Zoom is primarily a tool for lectures and teacher-centered instruction and totally eleminates the student factor in learning and teaching.
