TECHNOLOGY ENHANCED EDUCATIONAL PRACTICE DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC: TEACHING EXPERIENCE AT PRIVATE COLLEGE IN MALAYSIA

In the year 2020 to 2021, educators faced a dilemma in teaching and assisting undergraduates and postgraduates during the lockdown period due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The unprecedented situation has affected both the teaching and learning practices in higher educational institutions throughout Malaysia. All the educators were conducting online classes by transitioning into fully blended or flipped classrooms in higher educational institutions. Both educators and learners are equally sceptical about the outcomes of online learning and under such circumstances, embracing online learning systems will be a challenging factor for both educators and learners alike. This unprecedented Covid-19 pandemic has engendered us to utilize the existing Learning Management System (LMS) to engage students in learning. This reflection illustrates how the ADDIE instructional design has been integrated into content development to enable virtual classes to be conducted more effectively.
