Tales From the Epicenter: Remote Evening Academic Support In The Time of COVID, NYC

This presentation details the trials and tribulations of providing Evening Academic Support in a New York City law school where we went remote within one week. This presentation requires no level of prior knowledge before walking in. The session will review best practices for synchronous remote teaching, mainly using the Zoom platform, and present three student testimonials, some of whom are essential workers, detailing the pressures, struggles, and unforeseen obstacles encountered by the pandemic. Upon leaving the presentation, attendees will have heard about effective uses for Zoom breakout rooms, participant window and chat box; as well as best practices for conducting remote classes.
