TEACHING WITH ZOOM

Zoom is a cloud conferencing system that provides virtual meeting spaces. As an educator, you can hold office hours, advise students individually, or even create a virtual classroom complete with whiteboard demonstrations, polls, and small group work. Thinking about holding a synchronous class in Zoom? Consider these interesting €œTips and Tricks for Teaching with Zoombefore you do.

 Here are some cool features for teaching with Zoom:

  •  ask students to post questions, responses, share links, etc.
  •  “save the chat for questions missed. Also, you could ask each student to type here as a way to take attendance.
  •  answer questions with thumbs up/down or enable students to œraise their hands
  •  “assess student understanding pre-/post-lecture by creating a poll. Note: this must be created before
  •  “share visual aids from your computer screen. Participants can share their screens too.
  •  “highlight readings, solve equations, or analyze images with these markup tools.
  •  “share a space for participants, using the markup tools, to brainstorm, solve problems, underline key passages in a reading, etc.
  •  split large groups into small ones for a predetermined amount of time. You can manually assign students to specific groups in advance.
  • : schedule recurring meetings for each course you teach. This is especially helpful if you host back-to-back Zoomed classes and want to prevent overlap. Thank you, Jacob Whitaker from 糖心Vlog视频 English!
