Title: Transcript of our chat during the meeting
From Anna Maine : HI JO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From Stephanie Loomis : where in Central CA?
From Natalia Navarro : Orange Cove--south east of Fresno
From Stephanie Loomis : I grew up in Bakersfield. My Dad is from Dinuba and my Mom currently lives in Clovis
From Natalia Navarro : Wow! I taught Adult School in Dinuba for a bit. Know lots of people from Dinuba and Clovis.
From Stephanie Loomis : small world
From Stephanie Loomis : Clark County NV forbade Zoom
From Jeremy Hyler : What was their reasoning Stephanie?
From Stephanie Loomis : Too many security issues in the first week. Knee jerk reaction instead of letting teachers add the security.
From Jeremy Hyler : Ahhh, gotcha. Thanks.
From Anna Maine : Same thing happened in our district with Zoom
From Anna Maine : We switched over to Google Meet for 4 weeks and this week have reintroduced Zoom with more security
From Stephanie Loomis : Sure. It was frustrating. Clark County has been REALLY wishy washy about everything. It's ben hard on my students because they don't know what new thing will change next.
From Anna Maine : ^^ditto
From Stephanie Loomis : Yes, we're grading, no not grading. Yes, new material, no new material. Meet in synchronous, don't do synchronous
From Stephanie Loomis : Add to that the schools are mostly title 1, so digital access is an issue.
From Stephanie Loomis : 8-9 is a good number
From Jeremy Hyler : Most students come for the interaction and that is more than okay with me.
From Janet Ilko : I think what I have learned is my role in distance learning is to bridge the distance. Help them feel connected.
From Jeremy Hyler : I agree Janet.
From Jeff Dierking : Sorry I'm late.
From Jo Paraiso : What is time anyways these days, Jeff……
From Jeff Dierking : I don't even have an excuse. Just essentially the idea that I don't look at a clock and register that time exists.
From Jo Paraiso : I’ve had my face muscles freeze from having to smile so much, just so I don’t look angry at my students (which is my resting face)…….yes, Zoom fatigue.
From Jeremy Hyler : Yes, I know how you feel Jo. I have aches and pains that I didn’t know existed.
From Jo Paraiso : I’ve worked with a number of schools across the country, and 1 place has it down (at least at high school level) — district called D230.
From Jo Paraiso : Also, Lindsay HS in Cali
From Stephanie Loomis : Schools need to QUIT BUYNG CURRICULUM
From Stephanie Loomis : synchronous classes need to be no more than 30 minutes at a time
From Stephanie Loomis : It gets so complicated---especially with limited access
From Chris Sloan : They’re calling it Quaran-teens around the world at https://www.judgebulldo.gs/
From Stephanie Loomis : get it ready-- with all the pretty charts and graphs that admins like
From Christina C. : I love this too - younger kids: https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/lifestyle/kidspost/kids-newspapers-coronavirus/?pwapi_token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJjb29raWVuYW1lIjoid3BfY3J0aWQiLCJpc3MiOiJDYXJ0YSIsImNvb2tpZXZhbHVlIjoiNTk2YTgwNjE5YmJjMGYwZTA5ZWMwODU2IiwidGFnIjoiNWVhOWUyOWFmZTFmZjY1NGMyYzc0MzkyIiwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cud2FzaGluZ3RvbnBvc3QuY29tL2dyYXBoaWNzLzIwMjAvbGlmZXN0eWxlL2tpZHNwb3N0L2tpZHMtbmV3c3BhcGVycy1jb3JvbmF2aXJ1cy8_dXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPXdwX3RvX3lvdXJfaGVhbHRoJnV0bV9tZWRpdW09ZW1haWwmdXRtX3NvdXJjZT1uZXdzbGV0dGVyJndwaXNyYz1ubF90eWgmd3Btaz0xIn0.5l-pLBER-PXVy_HV-1h_CGK_KOagwpyMq6_qvXBD-H8&utm_campaign=wp_to_your_health&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&wpisrc=nl_tyh&wpmk=1&fbclid=IwAR3OJ97H942D-u2BLFxUZwoVANVvlCN09jInrzkr7zoENPf_hmheXw14fqY
From Stephanie Loomis : a full lit review
From Christina C. : oops ...
From Anna Maine : Feels like we need a teacher version of GitHub
From Christina C. : https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/lifestyle/kidspost/kids-newspapers-coronavirus
From Christina C. : Yes!
From Christina C. : tests
From Jo Paraiso : My wondering to that is how does that differ between primary, middle, high school
From Christina C. : Yes, it’s important to think about what’s appropriate at what age and stages of life, etc.
From Stephanie Loomis : Guide on the side
From Jo Paraiso : Have to bounce out everyone….kids are screaming….in pain? Is it glee? I have no idea. I should check. Before I go, one thing I wanted to recommend was “The Fun They Had”, short story by Asimov. Chilling read that my 6th graders loved. Can’t believe he wrote it before Internet was invented.
From Stephanie Loomis : looking it up
