By a large majority at the urgent extraordinary session of the Educational and Scientific Council of the FON, the proposal on the compensation of teaching was adopted, which will look like the materials will be uploaded online and consultations will be held
At the urgent extraordinary session of the Teaching and Research Council Faculty of Organizational Sciences (FON) held in Belgrade on Wednesday, it was voted by a large majority to begin with the compensation of classes from May 19. This is the so-called asynchronous model of teaching, which implies that teachers and associates publish materials online and are available during the consultation period.
Professor at FON Vladimir Obradović told N1 that he voted against that proposal, primarily because there is no agreement students about that.
"I'm afraid that the bill is being drawn up without an innkeeper, and that this document could cause discord. We should have preserved unity and come to an agreement with students and other faculties, and only then start voting," Obradović said.
Professor Obradović says that he received the invitation from the faculty management for today's emergency session on Tuesday and that the agenda was to make a decision on compensation for classes, but that they did not receive any materials.
"At the meeting, we were given a sheet of paper on which it was written how the tuition compensation should look like. That proposal was adopted by a large majority. The teaching will look like the materials will be uploaded online and consultations will be held. I voted against such a decision first of all because there is no consent of the students for this proposal," Obradović said.
He also stated that during the discussion at the Teaching and Research Council, the possibility of students blocking the faculty after this decision was not ruled out.
"For the students, this decision is news, they didn't know about it. I guess they need some time now, to agree on what and how to proceed and to make a decision," Obradović said.
Fundamentally wrong
He pointed out that the pressures on the University are still numerous.
"Neither the professors nor the deans hide it. There are a lot of reports, various, criminal, misdemeanor, a lot of inspection supervision, and for all that, the teachers and associates have been left without salaries, or rather, they receive very small leave allowances," said Obradović.
When asked if it is possible to make up for missed classes online, Obraović said that professors can upload materials, but that he considers that to be fundamentally wrong.
"We are not there for ourselves, to hang materials, but for the sake of the students, and I think that is fundamentally wrong. If the students do not support such a way of working, then the question arises as to the meaning of such a way of working. And that is why we should have talked to the students first," Obradović said.
"Everything can be made up, but the quality of teaching will not be the same as in standard years. I think it is possible to catch up with the material, cover the most important ones and for students to acquire the most important knowledge by the end of October," concluded Obradović.

Aleksandar Vučić now has only the old, proven methods of classic dictatorships left, because these modern methods of insanity and poisoning the public are failing. And that, however, goes against his head
Vučić is not defending the state, but himself from the state. With a drum on his back and a guitar in his hands, this man-orchestra performs two or three of the same songs without hearing, with falsifications and falling out of rhythm. His government and politics are like that. In short - dangerous for the environment
Arrests of professors, punishment of people, firing of journalists... The regime of Aleksandar Vučić is shining and is yet to shine. It is the decadent phase of the regime, the one towards the end
