Online Conferencing Platforms

Tips for Online Conferencing:

    • Keep meeting sizes small to allow for more interaction.

    • Make sure your conference is not too long or too short, but appropriate for the age group (usually no more than an hour).

    • Provide a practice session for parents/guardians when needed if they are supporting younger students.

    • Join the conference early to work out technical issues with video and sound.

    • Become familiar with your online conferencing tool before hosting a meeting.

Additional Platforms

Data Privacy & Using Instructional Technology Platforms in Your District

New York State recently passed new regulations that require schools to take additional measures to protect student data privacy (Ed Law 2D Part 121). Please consult your district administration before using edtech platforms that use students’ Personally Identifiable Information (PII).

Each district has (or will have) its own policy and procedures for platform use and compliance with this law.
