The sudden outbreak of the novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) has disrupted the normal teaching order. Under the background of “suspension of classes and non-stop learning,” online teaching, as a new way of education, faces unprecedented opportunities, but at the same time, it also brings great challenges. There is a serious inequality in the network environment and hardware equipment between different regions and schools. Teachers’ competence in information technology and ability to cope with emergencies are less than what they should be. Schools and teachers still “have no rice for the pot” despite multitudes of online curriculum resources and platforms. Parent, student and school, each does things in his own ways in home online learning. There is a strong demand for personalized and high-quality online education for parents and students, but it is difficult to cater for all tastes. Children from small-scale schools in rural areas and low-class children in urban areas have no access to online education for lack of necessary means. It is thus proposed to optimize the network environment and hardware devices, integrate high-quality online education resources and management platforms, and improve online education legal system and supervision mechanism.
