I just read about this on the Teaching College Math Technology blog and thought I should add it here. This was posted by Keri Bjorklund, from Sheridan College who has a blog for English Instructors and Literature Lovers called Ms. Professor B.

"The Problem

This past semester I was given the task of teaching a poetry and drama class online.
