Abstract
The New Normal introduces virtual classrooms where students are empowered to study and be assessed together, although physically apart. In my GE subject at PolyU, Creative Thinking and Creativity, students study pre-class materials independently. In the virtual seminar through Blackboard Collaborate, students form small groups, discuss unseen questions, and submit group answers. Their answers are immediately shown online to all students for virtual-classroom discussion. In addition, students present group projects in short online videos, followed by virtual discussions. The freedom of designing their narratives in video formats magnifies their creative imagination. Hybrid and peer learning become fruitfully optimized through VTL.
