Delivering lessons online: tips for remote teaching

The recent school closures have brought with them new challenges for teachers and schools, which might feel unfamiliar and daunting. We at Kapow Primary wanted to help teachers overcome these challenges and carry on delivering high-quality lessons to their pupils.

We organised an exclusive live stream with Kapow Primary specialist Sarah Vaughan to learn all about teaching remotely, using video calling platforms and delivering online lessons using Kapow Primary’s presentations, videos and resources, for Art and design, Design and technology, Computing, French and Music.

Sarah also gave tips on how to use Google Hangouts, Zoom, Microsoft Teams and more for remote learning.

The event also covered topics such as recording, video compression, copyright and more aspects of online teaching!
