Yea. Ortus (A consortium in my school) boys are awaiting for this. Finally we get to sit at home, stare at pixels flashing before our eyes, and pretend MSN is the classroom - just like what the others have done.
3 Years of waiting has finally paid off - the other consortiums had IT Emergency Weeks like 2,3 times before us. IT Emergency week is when students need not go to school, but rather attend online lessons, where teachers will engage in discussions with students on chatrooms i.e. MSN Messenger.
Firstly, I find this VERY VERY SLACK. Serious. Most of the work to be done, could be done at night, and in the day.. some people just log in.. make themselves "Busy", and then do other things. For example, my friends... they took the opportunity to play a few games, whilst waiting for the "lagging" teacher to start a lesson.
In addition.. there was quite alot of miscommunication somehow.. if people do not cooperate etc... Like people being late, not-online or just plain AFKing
Secondly, I also find this very fun. It is interesting to actually sit at home.. switch on radio/mp3, have a cuppa of c0f33 beside you.. and then start discussing - more of chatting hehe - about the day's events. The only wet blanket are the assignments that are due. haha... student's nightmare --> Homework
