Hi Jianuo, I agree with you that “Educators need to create equal, free and open dialogue space.” The Internet does provide us with many platforms for communication, and we can communicate with more different people. During the epidemic, online learning became an essential way of communication for us, whether it was with teachers or classmates. There are still many people who would prefer offline face-to-face communication, as you mentioned. Which of these two methods do you think is better? What are their advantages and disadvantages?
