Also thank you to whoever mentioned last week doing a "How are you feeling" poll at the beginning of class and then making a word cloud. I did it today and think it is so nice for the students to be able to see that others might be feeling some of the same things they are.

@doc_becca Yes! It was so wonderful to see over 500 smiling faces bopping along time the music as we and they set up to learn in #BIOL1070

@shoshanahjacobs Love it! What did you play?

@doc_becca Yea, but I stick to classical. I searched YouTube for female composers and I play those

@heyval2 oh I love that

@doc_becca Lol, I've been using a gift from @kbradnam and composing my own music for my lab videos. So, yeah. High school dreams.

@leninwtigger @kbradnam Amazing!

@doc_becca Did I ever tell you I was a college radio DJ? It was Blues Monday, from midnight to 6am.

@Namnezia I think I maybe knew this? That’s quite a shift!

@doc_becca I thought about doing this! But, I ask my students for a song request during class. Maybe I should just try and play music... 🤔

@taylorprice321 What have they been requesting?

@doc_becca I used to do this at the beginning of my classes in person and it was so fun.

@S_Grella Yeah this might be one of the things that gets carried over post-covid!

@doc_becca no.. but my kids' teachers did this for the parent school night tonight.

@gail_l_rosen What did they play?

@doc_becca Are you just playing music from your computer with speaker? or is their a music function in Zoom?

@DrGlitterbear I play on Spotify and then check “share computer sound” in Zoom so it basically sounds like it’s coming from their computer

Here is how you share music through Zoom BTW in case you haven't had a reason to do it! It's in kind of a sneaky place.

@doc_becca Yup...even incorporated it into weekly intros to keep it fresh...

@Fish4Brains Love it!!
