Livestream your Lab
Missouri S&T posted a YouTube Video about “How to Livestream Your Lab” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiJoxCSn6Pc). After only a week of trying this out, my team and I have become quite comfortable with this mode of instruction. We basically need 4 individuals for this type of activity:
In case of a further reduction of the number of individuals that are allowed to meet in one room, we could reduce this number to three. Essentially, the tasks of the second TA must then be divided among the first TA and the course instructor.

There is probably more helpful guidelines and best practices that we will develop as we become more versed and more comfortable with the technology and pedagogy. For now, we are doing what we can to keep the education at the high level that students can expect from an institution like Missouri S&T.
