well my name is
john donald and i'm a professor here in
the school of engineering at the
university of guelph i teach a course
called
engineering and design one the course
will be designed to be fully remote
one of the new advantages to having a
course delivered remotely
is the fact that not only can we create
videos in advance vdc but we can
actually record
the lectures in process and that can
help you in your studying
so you can review those later you can
slow them down you can speed them up you
can find the spot that you want to
review
and so that material is available to you
like it has never been been available
before i know this can be seen as a
challenging time you're trying to decide
whether to come to school
when the courses are going to be mostly
online i think would be very important
to come and continue
if you're ready to go to university this
is the world this is the way that we're
going to be learning in the future
engineers in terms of designing
solutions are all going to have to deal
with
these types of situations the use of
remote learning tools
the ability to be able to function in an
environment where you're not necessarily
dealing with people that are in the next
office but around the world
is a very important skill to develop in
that way it's actually a very exciting
time
to be coming to university and learning
how to use these tools
in order to be an excellent professional
you
