Abstract
This article considers the lived challenges facing three educators as they adapt, plan, and teach online lessons as a response to the Coronavirus disease. The closure of schools has forced many educators into new and uncertain territory and practices. Teaching online has been challenging in different terms and has also forced a deeper reflection on the nature of education. A self-study methodology was used to analyse the perceptions and feelings of the participants as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. In conclusion, migrating quickly to a virtual environment deeply challenges educators’ teaching praxis beyond their technical proficiency and includes the ability to be coherent with their deeper beliefs, values, theoretical approaches, and practices as educators.
