If you are looking for new ways to teach using Zoom, I recommend reading Dan Levy’s book, Teaching Effectively with Zoom, and its companion site. The book provides brief explanations of Zoom features, along with the how and why of using them. Examples from instructors using Zoom, along with their tips, provide a wealth of ideas. The author nudges instructors to first think of what their students will be doing in each class, rather than thinking of what they need to cover. Suggestions for building community and making decisions about materials to share asynchronously vs. synchronously are particularly timely.
