Lessons from the First Virtual Lab

2 Things

I was 6 days from leaving for a month-long teaching tour when our borders closed due to COVID-19.

Ten months later, I did something previously unfathomable.

I led The Lab online.

Here's the story.

Note: The audio is wonky in this Zoom recording. At the last minute, I added a new camera showing the wider shot of my setup. I didn't turn off that camera's mic, which is why my levels shift over the course of the video.

Good thing my mantra is process over product...

Process over product...
