Ask HN: How are you prepping for remote schooling?

3 pointsby topherjaynesalmost 5 years ago
We&#x27;re fortunate our school distract has made a decision (fully remote to start) on what the beginning of the school year is going to look like so we can start prepping.<p>We&#x27;re now trying to figure out how between my wife and I how can add&#x2F;supplement the zoom teaching.<p>Any good resources around tech&#x2F;art&#x2F;PE. The thought is when can we jump in with some sort of &quot;in person&quot; 30 min block. Our kids are younger, but curious what everyone else is thinking for the new school year to be apart of(even if working)

Hey, there&#x27;s an interesting tool to help you interact with your kids outside zoom. It&#x27;s called vlokit (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;vlokit.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;vlokit.com</a>). It&#x27;s video chat for your classroom. You can share lessons, homework, questions on it. It can be video audio or screenshare. Your kids reply back within the same thread.<p>You don&#x27;t need to get your class to come online at the same time. You can interact asynchronously. Your kids can take their own time to learn.<p>It&#x27;s easy for them to ask questions as well, without the pressure of doing it in a limited time frame.<p>Just so you know, I am one of the people working on it.
