From the author of Zoom for Beginners comes a starting guide geared specifically for teachers. Zoom's functionality and host of built-in collaboration tools are examined from the perspective of schoolmen and teachers alike, acknowledging both those working for an institution such as a college or high school, as well as the more entrepreneurial educators who prefer to tutor privately.
Zoom is an increasingly-popular piece of video-conferencing software that helps millions of people come together worldwide. From small businesses to grand organizations, Zoom is there to enable face-to-face communication across any distance.
As a teacher, you likely understand the importance of body language and facial expression when trying to ensure that a lesson sinks into a student's brain; even more so if you've ever had to grade an oral presentation. You are likely painfully aware that emails or phone calls just do not cut it when trying to give assignments to students remotely, as several of the tools required to make an engaging and impactful session simply do not transfer through.
Even if you're the best transactional writer in the world, how do you reinforce the right tone for all of your students? How do you ensure that an academic atmosphere will manifest in a student's home or apartment when you're trying to communicate from many miles away?
Some learn better through reading, some through listening, and some through observing.
- Through Zoom's high-quality video rendering, screen-sharing, and annotation features you will give your students the opportunity to learn through observation.
- Zoom's crisp audio and ability to let you interface with hundreds of students at once will ensure that you can give your classes the opportunity to learn through listening.
- And for those who prefer reading, or those who were ill or lost connectivity? Through this book, you can learn how to record your Zoom meetings, letting you send audio and video files containing your lesson to students, so that they may write down their own notes on them.
As a teacher, this book will show you:
- How to set up your very own virtual classrooms using Zoom
- How you can use Zoom's tools to ensure class discipline, much like if you were there yourself
