How did the ten quotes from your teacher colleagues about IT [Instructional Technology] make you feel? – use three adjectives  

Wistful, somewhat old, pessimistic 

Everyone understands that virtual classroom is contributive, practical and a bit challenging as it involves IT in itself. 

practical, up-to-date, challenging 

not new, actual, exciting to put into practice
