Abstract

All in-class teaching in the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, West Indies was suspended on Friday, 13th March 2020, because of the COVID-19 global health crisis. These restrictions remained for the commencement of the new academic year 2020-2021, which began in September 2020, thus jeopardizing the delivery of course content at the University of the West Indies, St. Augustine campus using the traditional in-class methodology. This paper presents an effective methodology for teaching and assessing laboratory-intensive courses during COVID-19 school restrictions. A mandatory level-two laboratory course of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the UWI was utilized as the basis of this study, which aimed at demonstrating that the methodology prevented student performance from degrading below what was experienced in the past five academic years. Feedback questionnaires were also administered to students, highlighting the key benefits they gained.
