• 1st year teacher teaching my first unit on a full-length novel.

  Flipgrid is amazing for short recorded commentaries (I suggest ~ 5 minutes) and then you don't have to listen to death by presentation over multiple class periods. I advise giving students a specific point of focus and a structure (theme or stylistic feature). Source: 5 months ago

• Maybe heresy but I don’t care

  I will echo the suggestion of flip as a possible tool to facilitate what you describe. Source: over 1 year ago

• What are your concerns about assigning students to create YouTube videos

  I teach composition, and I use Flipgrid for student-created videos and discussion responses. Students seem to really enjoy seeing and hearing their classmates - particularly knowing how to pronounce someone's name. Source: almost 2 years ago

• An experiment, or further reasons I hate discussion boards in online classes.

  Well, I teach primarily first-year-writing courses and discussion is a significant component of the course. But, rather than thinking generically about discussion, I prep assignments based on goals and outcomes. I choose tools and formats based on what I’m trying to accomplish and rarely does a traditional discussion board assignment work. Essentially, different tech tools allow me to create specific learning... Source: almost 2 years ago

• Online Classes

  For brainstorming sessions or icebreakers, I use Flipgrid. I have a friend who teaches math and she uses Flipgrid for demonstrations (she has students work out problems on Flipgrid and they would on the board in class). I personally don't make students show their face on the video, though. Students seem to really like hearing and responding to each other. Source: about 2 years ago

• Is it private if I lock my pdf

  Before putting anything on a cloud service I would recommend 3rd party tools, like Cryptomator, to encrypt folders and such, then upload to a cloud service. Source: 5 months ago

• VeraCrypt: Free, open source, disk encryption for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux

  I've used countless encryption "schemes" over the years, from True/Vera-Crypt to encrypted sparse bundles/images, and none have ever really felt right. These days I tend to use Cryptomator[0] instead. It accomplishes what none of the others could do, which is transparent encryption across devices. With Cryptomator, I simply create a vault somewhere in the cloud, stuff data in it, and I can access it from my... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Local encryption of files and folders

  Cryptomator's arguably the most popular encryption software for cloud storage (you can give yourself zero-knowledge encryption by using them) - it's actually what they specialize & focus on (cloud encryption). It's 100% open source and Free to use on computers. On phones I believe it's just a 1-time fee of a few bucks ($13-14, then you have it forever) - note: their iOS offering is still new, so may be a bit... Source: 11 months ago
