牛頓躲瘟疫發現萬有引力 臺師大籲學生多讀書少外出

國立臺灣師範大學有一位學生確診新冠肺炎，校方宣布4月6至17日全校改採遠距教學，仍有學生擔心學校還沒準備好。教務處4月3日再發公告表示，學校開學至今一直為老師辦理數位教學培訓課，各學院院長也都表示，下周起可配合遠距教學，已經準備好。各門課老師老師將用電子郵件等管道告知課程實施方式，如有延遲告知，也請學生給老師一點時間。

停課危機也是轉機，教務處透過學校官方臉書粉絲專頁表示，科學家牛頓1665年讀書時也遇到瘟疫，但「宅」在家發現萬有引力。前英國首相邱吉爾告訴世人「不要浪費每一個危機」。

臺師大也提醒學生，這段時間務必減少外出，不要群聚，利用時間多讀書。遠距課程無論是同步或非同步敎學，請ㄧ定要上線與老師以視訊或文字互動討論，並完成作業，讓老師知道你有出席課程，留下出席記錄。（撰文：公共事務中心胡世澤／編輯：胡世澤／核稿：鄧麗君）

【教務處說明：請各學院、系所配合自4/6-4/17改採遠距敎學的原由】全文

各位親愛的同學大家好，

日前本校請各學院、系、所配合自4/6-4/17改採遠距敎學，相關原由，在此跟大家說明如下：

1.教務處及各學院自開學以來，一直辦理數位教學培訓課程，協助各系所老師準備好數位課程；

2.學校100人以上的課已全部改為數位課程；

3.臺大系統已有共識，4月27日起60人以上的課全改為數位課程；

4.部分學院表示，他們的數位課程已準備好了，本擬自4月13日起開始實施數位教學；

5.因3月31日本校有一個COVID-19的確診個案, 為降低未來兩週內的敎室群聚，並進行全校大消毒，所以教務長於4月1日發信給所有的院長及系所主管，請大家配合從4月6日起至4月17日，全校所有的課程採遠距授課，並打電話給各院院長，院長們均表示已有準備，可配合。

6.同學們所修的課程，老師會利用Moodle、email 、line或其他管道，告知大家課程實施的方式，請大家給老師ㄧ點時間，若稍有延遲，也請體諒ㄧ下老師，可能還需要ㄧ點時間。

7.這段時間請大家務必減少外出，不要群聚，利用時間讀書；無論是同步或非同步敎學，請ㄧ定要上線與老師以視訊或文字互動討論，並完成作業，讓老師知道你有出席課程，留下出席記錄。

8.邱吉爾說：不要浪費了每一個危機；牛頓在1665年讀書時，也遇到瘟疫，宅在家發現了萬有引力。

9.謝謝師大人的團結合作，保護好自己，就是保護你的家人、朋友；也請給他人更多的溫暖與感恩，因為臺灣是全世界還在上課的六個國家之一。

Dear Students,

Recently, the university has asked all of our colleges, departments, and institutes to switch to long-distance instruction. The reasons and background information for such a drastic action are as follows:

1. The Office of Academic Affairs, as well as all of our colleges, have long been holding digital instruction professional development courses to assist our faculty to get ready for digitized courses.

2. All courses with more than 100 enrolled students have already been converted to digital courses.

3. There is a consensus among member universities of the National Taiwan University System to switch all courses with more than 60 enrolled students to digital courses, starting April 27, 2020.

4. Some of the colleges have reported that they have been ready for digitized courses, and were going to launch digital instruction on April 13, 2020.

5. On March 31, 2020, it was announced that there is one confirmed COVID-19 case in NTNU. To minimize the chance of cross-infection in the next two weeks, the entire university will be undergoing full decontamination procedure. As such, the Vice President of Academic Affairs has sent a letter to all college deans and department/institute chairs on April 1, 2020, asking for everyone’s cooperation to switch all university courses to long-distance instruction. In personal phone calls to our deans, it was learned that all colleges are prepared for the switch and willing to cooperate.

6. Instructors will utilize Moodle, email, Line, or other communication channels to inform students on the details of their courses’ long-distance instruction. We would like to ask you to kindly give our professors some time to send you this information, and ask for your patience and forgiveness if there were delays.

7. We would like to ask all of you to try to stay home and avoid congregations. Try to make use of this time to study. For long-distance instruction, whether it is synchronous or asynchronous, please make sure you go online, get in touch with your professors via video or text, and complete your assignments. Please also make sure your professors know you have attended such online sessions and leave a record.

8. As Churchill once said “Never let a good crisis go to waste”; it was also during the plague in 1665 that Newton discovered gravity whilst he was at home.

9. We would like to thank the cooperation of the entire NTNU family. Protecting yourself will be the best way to protect your family and friends. Please be kind to others and give thanks, for Taiwan is one of the six countries left in the world where classes are still in session.

Sincerely yours,

Office of Academic Affairs, National Taiwan Normal University
