The department of higher education, science and innovation have announced that they are working with colleges and universities to pursue online learning. The communications and digital technologies minister will reportedly be helping with the access to data for the online learning.
The lockdown has meant that many examinations and assignments were postponed as students left universities. There are currently plans to help students to gain access to examination papers and materials to prepare for the examinations.
Many students were forced to quickly leave campuses as all universities closed their campuses as well as the residences. Check out the previous newsletter which looked at the issue. Not all students have been able to return home and some universities are staying at residences on campus.
