TEACHING ONLINE WITH ZOOM AND A PREMIUM DRY ERASE PAINTED WALL
Conducting Zoom teaching sessions differs from standard classroom instruction in several ways. The first obvious difference is the fact that you’re not in the same room as the students, so the possibilities for interaction are limited. Also, the writing surface that’s available for doing lessons in a traditional classroom is typically a large chalkboard, whiteboard, or dry erase wall. However, with only a good laptop, a reasonably priced laptop stand, a premium dry erase painted wall, and the Zoom Meetings software, you can conduct first-rate video teaching sessions that are just as creative, effective, and engaging as in-person classroom instruction.

5 KEYS TO CREATING THINKING CLASSROOMS WITH DRY ERASE PAINTED WALLS
If students work on the large non-permanent vertical surface (NPVS) of a top-quality dry erase wall for problem-solving, brainstorming, and other class-related tasks, their thinking, and learning become visible to the teacher and everyone else in the classroom.
