Abstract

A sudden change in the classroom practice due to the emergence of COVID-19 a year ago has made teachers experience changes. The changes, when moving from offline to online classrooms, have forced them to adapt their teaching methods and strategies, as well as the nature of their courses. After a year of pandemic, teachers are expected to adjust themselves with the condition. How teachers deal with the changes in the classroom and their attitudes on the changes can be seen from the tones of their writings. The tones are reflected through the word choice. The positive tones show that teachers have embraced the changes while the negative ones show that they are still struggling to cope with the changes. This paper would analyse the writing tones of lecturers from different departments, sharing their classroom experiences, in order to see their attitudes on the classroom practices after one year of a pandemic.
