[Metal] Re: METAL nostalgia

[Kay Bond]

Hi Joel

Thanks for the email.

On the whole pretty well, although my personal laptop had tech meltdown the  weekend before Welcome and it took 3.5 days to sort out some random settings that changed with my microphone that came about as a result of unplugging my 2nd screen - who knew 🤷.

Otherwise however, the tech is largely bearing up. Because our cohort numbers are way over 300, we're using 2 Teams meetings on multiple devices or on O365 as well as the installed app which has worked pretty well. Just hoping that Engineering Drawing on whiteboard on one meeting shows up on the other. It did during testing so...

We also used Teams Live and Engage to address the students if it was going to be a bit less interactive.

We also ran Helen Whitehead's Moodle escape room last week for over 1000 students, running multiple Teams and breaking into channel meetings in their tutor groups which was a success. It also highlighted some issues around how students enter the Team meeting and their status , i.e becoming guests even when they are technically members of the Team.

Otherwise just the usual issues around enrolment...

Anyone else?

Cheers
Kay

Hi everyone,

It has been a long time since the METAL mailing list was used for messages relating to our old project.

In a way, everyone has become part of this project now!

How are people getting on with the technology?

Best wishes,

   Joel
