UOTech.co Demonstrates How Zoom Can Be Used for Remote Education During COVID-19-Era Virtual Classroom Learning
How Zoom's whiteboard, video sharing, and collaborative document editing can support remote teaching during COVID-19, and where to find Zoom's own educator resources.
In consideration of COVID-19 and adjusting to new norms in education and the workplace, UOTech.co shows educators how the Zoom platform can facilitate collaboration with colleagues as well as engage students. Zoom is a highly intuitive platform for video and audio conferencing, webinars, and video communications.
Tools and tricks within the platform are demonstrated, like using the virtual whiteboard, sharing video, and collaboratively editing documents to facilitate remote education.
Zoom has also posted resources directly on their website to assist educators getting started on their platform for the first time. These resources include:
- Comprehensive Guide to Educating Through Zoom
- Tips and Tricks: Teachers Educating on Zoom
- Tips and Tricks for Administrators and Staff
- Student Tips for Participating in Online Learning
- Education Guide: Getting Started on Zoom
We’re all in this together and UOTech.co wants to help everyone feel more comfortable working in this new environment. Social distancing, flattening the curve, and minding the elderly and those who are immunocompromised will be key in containing the spread of COVID-19 in the days ahead.
If you or your organization could benefit from instruction on how to work from home during these challenging times, please reach out and UOTech.co can facilitate creating a training series around your organization’s needs and tools that may help ease the transition.
