I'm well, Carol. How are you?

**Yellow Mustang Girl** · 09-24-2020, 08:55 AM

I'm pretty good. Keeping very busy teaching all online, but all in all, doing good.

Yeah, I both teach and take classes online...hanging in there.

Hannah Do you like the online teaching? And what about from the students' view? Do you like taking them online?

How are the rest of the bunnies

I teach college students online...so I can imagine that a lot of them enjoy it. I don't like it as much because there are a lot of in person queues that can be missed. Plus, physically talking to the class is a lot more enjoyable. Half the time students don't have their cameras on so I am just talking to a screen which feels very unnatural. As a student, I love them because I get to be a lot more independent in terms of completing my work when I'd like to.

I'm with you. I took some of my graduate courses online, and they were very convenient. I also teach at a university, and all mine are online. I love the upper level classes to teach online. The lower level are tough as I'm teaching them technology, too, it seems.

I am not like an official teacher teacher. I work at our Health and Wellness Center on campus so I do classes on stuff like Suicide Prevention, Self-Care, Active Listening, Alcohol/Substance Use & Abuse. A lot of mental health topics...which typically students don't care too much about.

You still teach, so you are a teacher, even if it's not an official title

And even if those classes are for credit. I wish our university offered classes like that for our students. We used to do talks for them on various topics like that, often offering free food or drinks if they attended. But that was prior to the pandemic.
