Online Learning<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This month we focus on making our Zoom lives a little easier and strengthening our communication strategies with our featured online learning opportunities<\/strong>. One is a tool with which most of us are familiar, but may not be using to its full functionality. The other is an old skill we all practice but could likely practice more effectively, especially when working remotely.<\/p>\n

\nThis month\u2019s bundle comprises video resources on a range of Zoom features, including group collaborations, direct sharing, sharing multiple screens simultaneously, and closed captioning, as well as Zoom basics such as scheduling a meeting, hosting break-out rooms, and others. Start your learning by visiting our website<\/a>.<\/p>\n
