Segment 1: Remote/Hybrid Learning UpdateSegment 2: Mailbag

1. We’ve been in hybrid learning for 4 weeks and it already seems stale… What can I do to make the classroom interactive and interesting?
2. I am super frustrated with teaching on zoom when my students have Chromebooks. There are a lot of functions such as annotation, choosing their own breakouts, etc that they can’t use. Do you have any suggestions?
3. Digital assessments are now my biggest headache. What do you guys recommend?
4. Now that we are 5 weeks into school and I am feeling better about my teaching situation, what are some edtech tools that you use in your classroom? https://www.nj.gov/education/covid19/teacherresources/virtualproflearning.shtml
5. What is a good way to digitally “hand out” materials to my students? There are so many options in my LMS, but sometimes I just want to provide a resource that they can edit and save.
6. I see that you are posting a lot of videos on YouTube about edtech, what projects are you working on now?
7. From Twitter edumentor chat: What are some ways that students demonstrate mastery after completing a hyperdoc.
8. Thanks for doing a PD on podcasting! I never knew how many cool resources there are… What are some other podcasts that I should check out?
