摘要:This script presents comedic moments experienced by professors teaching online. We examine instructor experiences of the “wheel of death,” the “hermeneutic circle of support,” the phenomenon of students taking coursework for purposes of convenience, instructors’ felt needs to always be at others’ service 24/7, and how instructors respond to students’ self-evident questions. In this short scene about learning to teach online, all characters appearing are fictitious. We share this with others because we argue that comedy is an effective way to respond to some of the challenges we have faced in learning to teach online.
