Besma Riabi Dziri Poet Limerick

Online Learning

There was a woman whose name Caroline
She dreamed one day she could teach online
She learnt technology tools
But never tried to take schools
While teaching she found her students offline.

*****

All students were invited to join zoom
To download the app and attend classroom
The teacher sent a passcode
There were works on the main road
The attendees still in the waiting room.

*****

Caroline did not give up on her dream
She devised a very clever scheme
Got training on e-learning
Attended virtual schooling
At home she could host members of her team.

*****

Caroline tried to lend students a hand
They worked with all the tools at their command
She bought for each a smart phone
To build a life of their own
Caroline henceforth had it all in hand.
