Using Digital Platform to Enhance Student’s Individual Learning

SYNOPSIS
Due to the pandemic, all classes at the Faculty of Liberal Arts were conducted online from March 2020 to December 2021. From the survey undertook in May 2021, 24% (n=42) of learners could not clearly understand the lessons as before, so the Faculty suggested all live classes being recorded for learners to watch again. There were comments that videos on Webex and Zoom clouds could sometimes get buffering. To help learners engaged more, I created a Google Classroom for each module and posted the handouts for them beforehand. I recorded each lesson, saved and published them as unlisted videos on YouTube and posted the links to the videos via Google Classroom. From the course evaluation, learners gave positive feedback and said they could learn better by looking at the handouts during the live classes, watch the recorded videos on YouTube after classes and asked questions during the live classes again.

Wipapan is a lecturer who owns a Facebook page teaching English for Thai learners with 17,000 followers and a YouTube channel. In 2020, she was funded by Mahidol University to do a 15-hour MOOC course titled English for Career Preparation, enrolled by over 2,900 people within 9 days after launch.
