Abstract

Singapore progressed to DORSCON Orange on 7 February 2020 when a local case with no history of travel out of Singapore was confirmed COVID-19 positive. With the impending lockdown, decision was made to move all postgraduate programs online. The objectives of this paper are to document early experiences and lessons learnt in the conversion of face-to-face to online teaching; and to conduct a literature search for tips on effective online teaching.
