- Abstract
- COVID-19 and the government restrictions in place have seriously affected the face-to-face (F2F) mode of delivery in education and higher education has been one of the hardest hit. Universities around the world had to implement the transition from F2F to online on very short notice. In this paper, the author presents a case study that demonstrates the challenges, steps, and adjustments taken to bring a course that has significant components of communication, teamwork, and project management from a full F2F mode to fully online whilst maintaining as much learner-learner and learner-teacher interactions and students engagement as possible. This has been achieved, not without drawbacks and challenges, via synchronous delivery mode and with private channels and breakout room function to promote intra-team and inter-team communications, and teamwork. © 2021 IEEE.
