Applicable strategies for my classes
I found this podcast when I was new to teaching on Zoom and life was uncertain due to COVID-19. I appreciate that the information presented is clear with actionable steps for instructors to implement immediately. This is a podcast that I still use today to implement strategies both for F2F or in an online platform. Thank you for the great information and education!
