With each new class, I tell my students that we are going to try one new thing in Zoom each week. I always reassure them that I’m learning, too, because I find that if I don’t get into Zoom frequently to practice using it, I start to forget!

And for us teachers, I think practice is really important. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve Zoomed with myself just to see how something works, and to compare how things work on a computer vs. a tablet vs. a phone. There are few things less flattering than seeing yourself on Zoom from three different angles because you’re using three different devices, but I really need that practice so I can help my students learn remotely!
