Description

After our pivot to online instruction in Spring of 2020, Zoom became a ubiquitous tool in the world of online classrooms. However, now that many instructors have moved beyond the basic comfort stage with this classroom conferencing platform, it’s time to move to the next level with our use of Zoom. In this session, you’ll participate as a student in a highly engaging Zoom class session. Throughout, the facilitator will pause to show “under the hood” of how certain pedagogical and technological choices can maximize student engagement.

Facilitator: Dr. Lindsay Masland, Center for Academic Excellence/Psychology
