The main purpose of this study was to investigate exemplary online teachers’ transition to online teaching with a specific focus on the successful practices. The findings show that when teachers described their successful practices, they often attended to their changing roles and representation of their “selves” within an online classroom. The authors found that teachers struggled to make themselves visible and heard in online environments by constantly challenging their already established roles and assumptions toward learning and teaching. They build their teacher personas by drawing their knowledge and experiences from different sources, such as their own experiences as learners in online classrooms and observations of other online teachers.
