Classroom Streaming
Welcome to our new reality! Those students who are required to remain at home due to self-isolation protocols are given the option to continue their learning at home through Classroom Streaming.
About Classroom Streaming
Classroom Streaming is essentially the act of completing schoolwork at home while simultaneously being linked into the class via Zoom or other streaming apps. Classroom Streaming arose from a need due to our changing circumstances and unique situations.
What do i need?
In order for Classroom Streaming to be as successful as possible, there are some key components that are required:
- An internet connection
- A internet-accessible device (Computer, iPad, etc) with access to Zoom and Google Apps
- Paper and pencil to write when needed
- A quiet space for the students to be able to hear the lessons as well as for me to be able to hear them
- I highly recommend using the internet browser 'Google Chrome' for Classroom Streaming as it is optimized for the apps and activities we will be doing
- A printer is extremely helpful but not required
