HumasUPNVJ - As is well known, the Covid-19 pandemic has not yet ended. Previously, the Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education of the Republic of Indonesia had targeted that schools and lectures would be held face-to-face in July.

Minister Nadiem Makarim said this step could be taken if the Covid-19 vaccination for teaching staff which has been going on since Wednesday (24/2/2021) can be completed in June 2021.

With this policy from the Minister, UPN Veteran Jakarta is trying to use learning methods with an online system combined with face-to-face meetings for several hours or what is commonly known as the hybrid learning method. This learning method is expected to be able to minimize the psychological impact that exists on students during a pandemic.

Anter Venus as Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs when following up on the preparation of a smart class in one of the faculties said that this hybrid learning would be carried out on a rotational basis, "This hybrid learning method will later be divided/rotated with 50 percent of the students. Later students who receive face-to-face meetings are still required to comply with health protocols in accordance with government directives. We from the campus will check the temperature of the students who attend starting from the entrance, requiring them to wear medical masks, bringing personal sanitizers (washing hands before and after activities) and after class are required to go straight to their homes." Venus said to the UPNVJ Public Relations team.

"We are currently preparing tools that are certainly adequate for this learning method process such as cameras, monitors, microphones , and supporting software ." he continued

This hybrid learning method is specifically for new students later.
