21:22:21

From Stephanie Loomis : Clark County NV forbade Zoom
21:22:57

From Jeremy Hyler : What was their reasoning Stephanie?
21:23:51

21:24:11

From Anna Maine : Same thing happened in our district with Zoom
21:24:36

From Anna Maine : We switched over to Google Meet for 4 weeks and this week have reintroduced Zoom with more security
21:25:08

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.
21:25:34

From Anna Maine : ^^ditto
21:25:55

From Stephanie Loomis : Yes, we're grading, no not grading. Yes, new material, no new material. Meet in synchronous, don't do synchronous
21:26:34

21:29:19

From Stephanie Loomis : 8-9 is a good number
21:31:21

From Jeremy Hyler : Most students come for the interaction and that is more than okay with me.
21:32:04

21:38:46

From Jo Paraiso : What is time anyways these days, Jeff……
21:39:15

21:39:57

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.
21:40:46

From Jeremy Hyler : Yes, I know how you feel Jo. I have aches and pains that I didn’t know existed.
21:41:29

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.

21:41:56

21:54:37

From Christina C. : Yes!
21:56:42

From Christina C. : tests
21:58:33

From Jo Paraiso : My wondering to that is how does that differ between primary, middle, high school
21:59:48

From Christina C. : Yes, it’s important to think about what’s appropriate at what age and stages of life, etc.
22:01:06

From Stephanie Loomis : Guide on the side
22:02:08

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.
22:02:29

From Stephanie Loomis : looking it up
22:03:28
