Everything seems to be so hurry at the final class meet. I tried to teach as much as I could in that class. From the beginning, of the semester until that class, I could cover about 80 percents of knowledge that my students would need to know. After that class, we could not meet because the government asks all educational institutes to temporarily shut down due to the crisis of COVID-19. Everything is, like, immediately. We could not prepare anything initially. I recorded my own voice and upload it with the slide show into online space for my students to watch and learn at home.

Although I could teach everything I plan to teach, but the evaluation is different. I could not give them a worksheet. I could not ask them to form a group to work together in class. The only thing I could do for the attendance check and the evaluation is to interact with them through social network. Therefore, the problem is not about the uncovered lessons, but it is about the strategies to evaluate the knowledge and skills of students. I wish the situation would be better so soon, at least, everything should turn better before the beginning of the next semester.
