No Student Should Have To Sit Through A Zoom Lecture
I’ve lectured some on Zoom, but our best Zoom classes this spring were when we were working collaboratively. This Slate article I just found tells us that what works well in the classroom also works well online – active learning and engagement is best:

Animated Gifs for Teachers
I believe some people have an animated gif for all occasions. You know the ones–those people who make snarky or delightful comments with a single looping image? Thoughtful teachers sometimes use a well placed visual image in their presentations and in online interactions. I think some people collect and curate a collection of imagery to use.
I know how to make my own gifs, but often, I’m too busy to make one to use a visual comment. Usually, I just search for some that have already been made.
During one such search today on giphy, I found these fun gifs created by Wheeling University athletes. Making gifs is a great idea for any school’s students to do.
The dancing ones are my favorites:
