Live-editing & studio collectivity in remote times
2020+
2020+
Given the predominance of screen-based, single-voice interactions since the pandemic, I have taken up the pedagogical task of making online communication more inclusive and engaging of discussions between the lines of coursework.
In my seminar and studios I have been testing simple combination Zoom and live co-editing in custom-template Google Slides, which very simply takes the pressure off speaking to a sea-of-Zoom-faces and offers a third dimension of visual listening. This lets remote students develop group culture outside of class, and leaves a “digital trace” of discussions. I have also used Slides in the seminar context for students to upload visual content as conversation startes for weekly reading discussions.
