Abstract

The article presents a semantic analysis of various post-folklore genres that are common in the Internet space and are devoted to the topic of distance education. This made it possible to identify and explicate the problems associated with the forced transition of educational institutions to distance learning in 2020. The analyzed material is presented by anecdotes, memes, rumors and rumors, collected by a continuous sample method in social networks and messengers, such as: VKontakte, Facebook, WhatsApp, Viber, as well as in oral interviews with informants. A total of 159 FE (folklore units) were analyzed. We deliberately do not differentiate the collected material in terms of genre, since genre boundaries in post-folklore are blurred and they can not always be accurately drawn. Folklore discourse today records the following pain points of distance education: the lack of developed ethical standards of distance learning, insufficient technical equipment of students and teachers, lack of information competencies, and some others.
