Best Zoom Meeting Tricks and ideas for All Teachers:
Plumbers using Zoom
HVAC Companies using Zoom
All Teachers using Zoom
------
As states across the country brace for the COVID-19 pandemic to reach its peak in the coming weeks, educators are some of the hardest-hit professionals left in the wake. After all, their ethical obligation to teach students isn’t locked away just because the doors of their classrooms are, so teachers are left to adjust their syllabi and shift their lesson plans daily.
Still, finding ways to keep students engaged from a distance is no small task. With school buildings closed all across the country and online learning taking over as the new normal for the foreseeable future, teachers have to find creative ways to get students involved with their own education from afar.
Fortunately, 21st-century teachers have one very powerful tool at their disposal: technology.
Specifically, zoom video communications allow educators, from Kindergarten teachers to Harvard Law Professors, to continue interacting with their students on a regular basis.
Of course, education isn’t the only powerful way that zoom is aiding human interactions impacted by social distancing measures.
The internet has been inundated with stories of everything from weddings taking place on zoom to plumbers using zoom conferencing to facilitate virtual home tech services, but the fact remains that teachers are arguably bearing the brunt of the burden in these turbulent moments.
As such, these zoom meeting tricks are designed especially for teachers trying to get a handle on the evolving landscape of their digital classrooms.

Starting a Class
- If it’s your first time using Zoom, visit the Educating Guide: Getting Started on Zoom and complete the steps in advance of your class to get you set up.
- Schedule your class in the Zoom application for your desired date/time and copy the invitation details to send to your students.
*Please note that students will not need to register for an account to join.
- Join your class a couple minutes early to ensure a proper connection then follow the below tips for a quality online learning experience.
Tips and Tricks for Virtual Lessons
- For your first class, set aside some time to introduce your students to Zoom and ensure that they’re able to connect their audio and video.
- Give an agenda or plan for each class by Screen Sharing a document or slide at the beginning of class. This gives students a clear idea of how the class will progress, what will be covered, and the activities they’ll engage in.
- Discuss online etiquette and expectations of the students in your first virtual class and periodically revisit the topics.
- Utilize the Whiteboard or Annotate a shared document and let your students engage as well. When sharing a whiteboard, document, screen, or image, try whiteboarding math problems or have a student use annotation to highlight items such as grammar mistakes in a paper you’re sharing.
- Take time to promote questions, comments, and reactions from your class. Give a minute to allow your students to utilize reactions, write their questions in chat, or be unmuted to ask their questions live.
- Divide into smaller groups for a discussion on a certain topic. You can use Zoom’s Breakout Room feature to either pre-assign or auto-assign students into groups for a short period of time so they may discuss things together.
- Have students be the presenter and share projects with the class. This allows your students to show what they’re working on while practicing their presentation skills. It also allows students to hear from one another
