  1. If I was a college student who was forced by COVID_19 to switch from fully on-site to fully online learning, I would ask college administrators one question.
    “Will he quality of online education be the same as the quality of the expected on-site education?”
    If the answer is
    “No, online education will be only about 80 % as good as on-site education”.
    I would say: “OK, then I would like to have back 20 % of my tuition”
    If the answer is
    “Yes, online education will be as good as on-site education”.
    I would say: “OK, then why I was not offered it before? And why can’t I have it for the rest of me learning?”
    If I was a college administrator, I would anticipate such questions from students. I would plan on lowering tuition by 20 % but significantly expanding online offering, at least in the form of the layered classroom (https://www.cognisity.how/2018/10/classroom.html).
