Abstract

The IEEE Region 9 (R9) Education Activities Committee (EAC) launched a new initiative of an online education platform to continue to provide valuable services to its members and volunteers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The committee conducted its first course aimed at tertiary-level lecturers, instructors, and professors to assist them in preparing and conducting quality virtual classes at their respective institutions, considering the pandemic restrictions. This blended and flexible learning (BFL) course presented the novel Guerra's BFL framework particularly designed for courses in science and engineering (later described in the article).
