Orlando Fringe reviews: Bullies, booze and variety shows

Over the past year of online teaching, instructors and students have struggled, not just with the digital divide but with a tense binary: online classroom work
versus privacy violation.
Academic Practice in Ecology and Evolution found that some students felt it was a violation of privacy (because their personal settings, their homes and family were visible), possible distraction when watching others on screen, self-consciousness, among others. Class, race, ethnicity and appearance were factors in their reluctance, the study found.
