Having a great understanding of the features of the platform ,so I know its the best method for Non F2F meetings.
Ensure that the LInk is sent to participants..Zoom spins alot at times.

# data[].attributes.body
Depending on the O.T. subject,I will have to think about a variety of ways for access,engagement and methods to check for understanding.Pre and post tests,polling,develolping communities for support.

# data[].attributes.body
Make eye contact with the camera!

# data[].attributes.body
Consider the function of the tech with the learning outcomes. Be thoughtful about grouping and individual work. In the past I have assigned or been part of group projects in asynchronous courses that went well and some that members did not meet the standards.

# data[].attributes.body
Play with zoom and learn what features it has and how to access them all. Use the polling option as way to check for understanding. Also utilize break out sessions to help learners collaborate.

Using multiple platforms to help learners access the knowledge while also becoming a community of learners. We have learned about several ways to interact with learners while still sharing content. I want to help the participants feel comfortable.

# data[].attributes.body
Continue learning about the different platforms to connect with students and ensure that there is engagement across the course.

# data[].attributes.body
Make sure you are comfortable with the technology prior to beginning. Utilize breakout rooms for small group discussions.

# data[].attributes.body
Practice and find ways to be comfortable with the technology. Fine resources with visuals to help prepare learners to use zoom.

# data[].attributes.body
I would like to help create a community of teachers using the classroom or other digital formats to help them connect and make the learning engaging and relavent for current situations.

# data[].attributes.body
Practice any tools you plan to use prior to the zoom meeting so that time isn't lost as you're shuffling from content to content.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm going to become more versed in online learning platforms so I have a larger toolbox to use with participants to increase engagement. I'm also going to consider shortening my content. Rather than full day trainings, shorten it to 1/2 days or 2 hour chunks to help participants stay focused on the work.

Have participants use the buttons to check for understanding or to communicate with facilitators AND use break out rooms! Love that feature!

# data[].attributes.body
I will be very aware that the depth of learning doesn't have to change - I just need to go about it differently. Many tools to use now!

# data[].attributes.body
I have now been in many break-out rooms. I need to practice doing that as a facilitator!

# data[].attributes.body
I want to be very clear on the "why" behind lessons or activities. If it doesn't forward the learning or aim toward an intended outcome, it's not necessary. As I type this, I realize that's important in F2F as well. I just want to really remember that the point is NOT to just replicate the F2F in an online platform. Instead, meaningful chunks and intentional progressions.

# data[].attributes.body
As we're all using Zoom more and more these days, the biggest thing I've noticed is that not everyone is aware that they should have their microphone muted when not speaking. There can be a lot of extraneous noise that comes through and it can be very distracting!

# data[].attributes.body
I think one adaptation I will make will be to make sure that all the participants understand the technology, have all the apps downloaded that they will need to complete course requirements. The article that talked about the 8 tips for effective online learning mentioned actually providing the students with a document of all the apps, etc. with instructions on how to use them prior to the class. That seems like great advice to me!

# data[].attributes.body
Having content organized onto google slides so that I can find link and docs easily from the share screen function

# data[].attributes.body
I had a colleague talk about respected the learner by ensuring that nothing was added online that felt like busy work. I want to make sure I don't fall into the trap of creating work that doesn't push learning.

# data[].attributes.body
Be sure your presentation is clear and readable. Limit any distractions and use a welcoming voice.

# data[].attributes.body
I will want to include collaboration activities to get students working together, and I will need to add some videos explaining how to add links for evidence/documents.

# data[].attributes.body
Always mute your microphone when entering a zoom, and when not speaking.

# data[].attributes.body
Use breakout rooms and create/find a webinar to explain how you will be using Zoom , expectations, and etiquette etc.

# data[].attributes.body
Figuring out how to make engagement opportunities meaningful and relevant to the content. Realizing now that there's many options, so trying to figure out which ones are the best fit.

# data[].attributes.body
As we make the transition to a more digital format, I think slowly introducing participants to the interactive tools.  In our attempts to try out all the new bells and whistles that we are learning about, we may overwhelm some participants causing undo stress and taking away from our learning target.  I don't want the digital learning to become their main focus over the intended content.

# data[].attributes.body
I love the Zoom Breakout rooms.  I especially like how the host can send out a question or comment to the individual rooms, as well as, jump in and out to hear their discussion.

# data[].attributes.body
Use of break out rooms for small group conversations.

# data[].attributes.body
One adaptation I will make while transitioning to digital learning is more preparation prior to facilitation and holding a "pre" meeting with participants to make sure technology is ready and the comfort of use and access is available to participants.

# data[].attributes.body
One zoom tip I would share with others is to ensure they know how to use the mute and stop video button appropriately.

# data[].attributes.body
One adaptation I will be making as I transition from F2F to digital is to include directions for all technology pieces. I feel as I am in the younger generation and I still struggle with different technology pieces. I just want my members to feel comfortable with technology in my session.

# data[].attributes.body
I've had students (including my own), parents and teachers express anxiety about the transition to digital feeling like the "work" has increased significantly. The added time to figure out the technology, added digital features/expectations (office hours, small group time, etc) plus the issue of timing/rushing is causing stress. Plus, there are really people that will always be uncomfortable sharing on screen. So many additional mental health issues along with just figuring out the "how."

# data[].attributes.body
Setting norms, reviewing the basics of Zoom features, making clear how participation can/should occur, using breakout rooms

# data[].attributes.body
Being really aware of helping my nontechie participants feel comfortable and confident. I was on a Zoom this morning (hosted by someone else) where someone left due to the technology making them anxious. I think that goes with creating that culture and community online.

# data[].attributes.body
I really want to think about what parts of PD can by asynchronous and which parts need to be synchronous.

Tera: Setting norms at the beginning. My children have been on zoom and I taught MINE right away to mute when they are not talking. It was so crazy. Mine will be questions to be posted in chat or running google doc, speak when called on, and that we all will give a little grace because we have co-workers (kids, dogs, ect) in our new environment that may need something during the call.

One zoom tip I would share is to make sure to update Zoom regularly to ensure that you are using the same version as other participants. Also make sure to communicate expectations/group norms from the very beginning.

# data[].attributes.body
One adaptation I would like to include is using various ways to include group discussions. (Flipgrid, Discussion boards, Zoom breakout rooms, etc.)

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with others in this thread in regards to allowing participants time to practice.  Many people are still uncomfortable with features and etiquette that should be followed.  I would also show students how to use the chat feature and also highlight that it can be shared with just the instructor or to the whole group.

Melanie Andersen: As I transition from a traditional F2F class to a digital environment, I plan on being more intentional with building a community through ice breakers and safe places (such as breakout rooms) for students to get to know each other and have discussions. I also want to set times for follow up with students.

# data[].attributes.body
I have been in zoom breakout rooms but never created my own. In a real-time event, I would use those to generate the need to verbalize understanding. I would also like to use flipgrid.

# data[].attributes.body
Instructors need to model and allow participants time to practice the features in zoom such as muting & unmuting and using the step away and break buttons in the participant list. Remind them not to do anything they wouldn't do in person.

# data[].attributes.body
Adaptations I am considering include Flipgrid, Zoom breakout rooms, polling, and 'live' speakers.

# data[].attributes.body
One adaptation would be to use alternative methods to facilitate group conversation such as Flipgrid or Zoom break out rooms.

# data[].attributes.body
Demonstrate and practice several zoom features prior to content being delivered, ie. participation buttons such as hand raising, thumbs up, step away, etc.

# data[].attributes.body
Share expectations for Zoom participants so everyone knows it is not to be a passive learning experience.  Use breakout rooms, hand raising, and polling to engage participants.

Zoom Tip - Get over yourself and how you look on camera...and choose a color that doesn't wash out your beautiful features! Always check for the latest updates and recommend that is a step for participants to take.

# data[].attributes.body
Use the polling question option to have participants interact with each other. Set up the zoom so participants are muted when they enter the meeting.

# data[].attributes.body
I am contemplating the use of ice breakers but in a way that encourages principals to be vulnerable and share their strongest core value. I think I can use FlipGrid to do this safely. I think I will need to add a model. I envision providing Brene Brown's list of core values and asking the participants to whittle it down to 1 or 2 as prior to class activity. In FlipGrid, principals will be encouraged by my model to share their core value and then provide evidence as to how they know that about themselves.

Pose a question that requires collaboration and discussion. Use break out rooms to facilitate and require a product when they return...padlet response, google response, verbal response...
