The onset of COVID-19 left people feeling unsettled, confused, and afraid of what tomorrow may hold.

From software studies, I employ the notion of affordances—what program functions are and are not made available to users—to observe how LMSs naturalize the transmission model. Rather than present a deterministic look at teaching technology, …
