This is a book owned and maintained by a community of educators who are transitioning lesson plans and learning experiences online to respond to the global pandemic. Everyone is transitioning to remote learning in an emergency situation- this is a disruption to learning on an unprecedented scale. It is also an opportunity for us to learn from one another and help maintain our community connections throughout this worldwide event. Training Agendas 1-2PM : Teaching Remotely with Zoom We'll discuss how to use the tools Zoom comes with to run an effective remote session, and talk about how remote sessions differ from in-person sessions. 10 min: Icebreakers (participate!) 20 min: Zoom Controls, Slides & Large Groups 20 min: Large Group Discussions (participate!) 10 min: Small Groups and Breakout Room Practice

Advice You want your arms to be at a 90-degree tilt and your head to be looking straight up. You want to be able to stand up to do some work, but standing for long periods of time is just as bad as sitting. Grab a standing mat and some accessories to combat plantar fachitis, which you get from standing up too much. Try to be barefoot as much as possible. Make sure you can sit down when you need to, keep a stool or chair handy so you can still work when you're tired of standing. Use Amazon Smile! Keyboard: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CMALD3E

Use this guide to support the discussion of the problems in the live sessions. Session 1 During the first session you are meeting your pod for the first time! You'll be grouped with your same pod each time, so the first session will be an icebreaker. Go around and introduce yourselves! Once everyone has arrived in the breakout room, introduce yourself and tell everyone: Your Name Where you work (if any) or what internships you have done (for students) Where you went to school

Teaching remotely don't forget to introduce yourself! Last week's notes I usually start on time in my in-person classes, but over Zoom there is always craziness. It's best to start a few mins late, not more than 5 is a best practice. First I want to say thank you.
