    Hi Jordan!
    I thought you did a great job of explaining Zoom. This technology is helpful when we have unexpected events happening during school. I personally am not a fan of this technology in my classroom because of the amount of uses in a school year. The only use I see is with other staff or parents like you mentioned. I do think it is easy to set up, but I think there is other ways for students to receive learning. For example, creating a pre recorded lecture on google classroom. Thank you for sharing.
