When such things happen we use Zoom to conduct lessons. It is available across platforms as a standalone app or in browser. It can be used to facilitate online learning. The user interface can be a little fiddly at times but I have escaped Zoom-bombing so far. ]]> 2020-10-20 01:23:14 UTC https://padlet.com/malachibroome/Bookmarks/wish/843246243 malachibroome https://padlet.com/malachibroome/Bookmarks/wish/843497376 I particularly dig Kahoot as a formative assessment tool in online classes.
