On a recentish trip to the American Museum of Natural History, I watched a group of unrelated people learn about the parts of a T Rex by putting together a puzzle. Teach is a big one. We love when we teach with a capital T, like exhibitions and university classes. Teaching is a core. I’m not well-versed in dinos.

I have learned the feng shui of how classroom setup impacts interaction and learning. For webinars, the platform is your classroom setup, so it important to understand how the Q/A and chat features, whether everyone can see everyone else’s chats or just the presenter.
