Students of Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU), Akungba-Akoko, Ondo State, have returned to classrooms after five weeks of virtual learning in response to the current economic situation following removal of fuel subsidy.
During this period, students adapted to the challenges of virtual learning — attending lectures and participating in discussions through digital platforms.
Aziz Zainab, a 100-level student of Biology Education, expressed delight to be back on campus, lamenting how network issues and power supply frustrated her during the period.
She said, “I’m very excited about the physical class we resumed today because, during the virtual classes. I had network issues and a bad power supply so I couldn’t keep up with the rest of the class.”
Another student, Orebajo Eniola, 400-level Public Administration, said “we have a lot to cover in the curriculum before writing our final examination. But I feel good coming back here again to continue what we have been learning online before.”
According to Hamzat AbdulSalam, a penultimate student in the Mass Communication department described physical learning as the best for him.
“The form of learning where we get to see our lecturers face to face has always been the best form of learning to me which is why I’m thrilled to be back here on campus to unlearn, learn and relearn,” he said.
