Allows the teacher to mirror and screen share their projector and laptop screen so kids in school and at home can see the content while the teacher sees the kids in Zoom on the monitor.

NOTE: There may be possible issues with screen-sharing videos while connected to the projector since we have the Epson speakers in the classroom. The kids in school can hear through that, but we do not know for sure if this will interfere with the audio "going through" Zoom. Might need to try this out, and we could have different experiences with different devices.
Also the interactivity of interactive boards and/or projectors will not work when connecting all three displays.
Allows teachers to show the content on their iPad screen to the class and on Zoom. This can also be paired with the set-up described above, or below.

Allows teachers to get the "Brady bunch" on their projector so that kids in school can see the kids in Zoom, and with the laptop turned the right way vice versa. Most teachers will know how to do this one by now, as it is what they have been doing with their second monitor already, just transferring it to the projector instead.

Audio/Video Options
Audio/Video Options
We do not have any specific guidelines for audio/video as that will be up to the teacher. What's optimal for sound for one teacher might not work as well for another teacher.
Current best thinking: it is best to only have the students at home use Zoom (not the entire class), mics off and video on if possible.
When the students at home have a question or are responding to the teacher they can unmute. Highly recommend using one of the silent gestures (raise hand) so it doesn't turn into a free-for-all.
Chat off, as we have already suggested. If absolutely necessary, turn it on but to "Host only." You very rarely want the chat set to "Public (everyone)."
If there are multiple adults physically in the same classroom on the same Zoom, the non-lead devices should turn their volume down as low as possible or off. As long as no one else in the room is on Zoom - aside from the teachers, TAs, and BAs - and those devices are not right next to each other, the audio should be fine.
