Ode to an Online Class Sonnet 18.1
Shall I compare thee to a classroom class?
Thou are more digital and interactive.
Online games do shape the minds at play,
And Twitter's speed makes knowledge just one click away.
Sometimes too long the page of learning takes to load
Like Polaroid's 60-second excitement of old
Yet, like a Facebook page revised
Learning now individualized
In context, from experts writing virtual, afar
But never texted from a car
Oh classroom now what is thy fate?
What use now for your lectern so great
And where will sit your faculties so fine
For now, so long as learners learn
So long fair classroom, I learn online.
