ONLINE CRASH: UNILAG admonishes students on use of platform
By OUR CORRESPONDENT
Following the collapse of its online platform, the University of Lagos has admonished students on proper usage, targeted at achieving efficiency.
In a notice to the students, the Head of the Information Unit, Mrs. Olufadeke Akinleye, on Tuesday, stated: “Observations from day one of online learning and recommendations to students. We observed a very high traffic on our LMS on January 25, 2021 due to the misconception that lectures start for all students by 8AM.
“Most lectures for the remaining part of the first semester 2019/2020 will be by asynchronous mode of teaching. In view of this, students are not obliged to login to the LMS around 8AM but can always access the content of the LMS at any time of the day as specified by their lecturers.
“Students should not panic whenever they observe some latency in accessing the LMS due to high traffic. When this happens, it is advisable to check back again after some time.”
She added: “To improve the experience for you and other users, please exit the LMS whenever you are not accessing any content. Do not stay connected permanently on the LMS. CITS is constantly working to improve the usability and enhance the user experience on the LMS.”
