    Teaching on zoom/teams IS difficult. It's not as simple as "the lesson is on a personal screen rather than a shared monitor in class". You have to account for students knowing how to submit work, how to maintain engagement, how to know that the student's listening, and more importantly, to check if the student is understanding. What are they writing on? If they're doing it through a phone then they need pen and paper, and that's another explanation about how to submit that. Can they see everything properly if they're on a phone? Little Timmy can't hear but everyone else can, but how do you know that's even the case? The PowerPoint hasn't changed, so your explanation made no sense because everyone was looking at the wrong slide.

    It's completely alien, and it's a fucking nightmare. Luckily, we dabbled in Teams earlier in the year, but it was extremely confusing at first.
