CROWD CONTROL: VC DIRECTS THE ADOPTION OF HYBRID TEACHING FOR ALL GENERAL COURSES IN LASU
Determined to ensure that students learn under a conducive atmosphere and forestall the potential hazards inherent in the conduct of teaching and learning in crowded classes, the Vice Chancellor, Prof. Ibiyemi Olatunji-Bello, mni, has directed the immediate adoption of hybrid lectures for all general courses in the University.
Prof. Olatunji-Bello, mni, also directed the adoption of the same method for Departmental classes with a large number of students.
The decision was reached after a meeting the Vice Chancellor held on Monday, 15th May 2023, with members of the University Management and Deans of Faculties in the University. During the meeting, the Vice Chancellor received briefing from the Deans concerning the need for bigger lecture rooms to accommodate courses with large numbers of learners and noted that the challenge of ample lecture space is not limited to Lagos State University in the face of a growing number of admitted students and mooted the idea of hybrid classes which was applauded by the Deans.
She assured that the facilities needed to prosecute the decision would be expeditiously provided.
The Vice Chancellor, thereafter led members of the University Management on an unscheduled visit to some lecture halls where she met with and addressed eager students on the development.
The hybrid lecture system would see some learners physically attend classes while others would be able to join live from their various destinations around the Campus, using a designated online platform.
Recall that the hybrid method of teaching is already being used for GNS courses in the university.
We Are LASU, We Are Great
