Recording from the Skylight Online Teaching Series (SOTS) session on October 27, 2020:

All About Breakout Rooms in Remote Teaching

Presented by Matthew (Matt) Coles and Alice Campbell, Skylight

Abstract: Breakout rooms have become ubiquitous in remote teaching, and we’re figuring out best practices for using them as we go along. Rather than a traditional presentation, we'll work together to discuss breakout rooms in remote teaching: their benefits, their drawbacks, and how to best use them to support learning. We will have a chance to share experience as well as swap tips and tricks. We'll have technical staff on hand for advice but we'll keep the focus on pedagogy in the context of science classes. We look forward to learning from each other’s experiences and collectively generating some best practices for everyone’s benefit.
