Committee Education

@Gary Feldman @Brian Kelly @Michele Herzog @Bob Pfahnl @Moira Goggin​

My wife Dolores, who is a teacher, recommended we research the following sites for remote education resources.  She is teaching today so she can't be in the committee meeting, so she sent me the web site information as an alternative to an in person demo.

This is great for questions.  The responses will be displayed so everyone can see them. Very easy to use, just need a code. Watch the sales video.

Thank you @Doug Higgs and please let Mrs. Higgs know how helpful this information is to us.  I used screencastify yesterday and it was very easy to use.  I recorded video and audio, download to MP4 and almost a zero learning curve, it was very intuitive!

Thanks Moira. I will pass this on to my wife.  She mentioned that she uses Google G Suite for teachers as the main Elearning tool.  She said Zoom has some features G Suite doesn't have such as "breakout sessions", however,  the school district It department doesn't use Zoom because of security concerns.  Apparently G-suite has better data encryption.
