ARTICLES AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
In this Gather.town tutorial, we'll share some of what we've learned about using Gather.town to support your Reacting class. This interactive session will provide an overview of the platform (and its pros and cons), and then dig deeper into practical questions and best practices for use. There will be time for all participants to play around, and for questions. This is also a great opportunity to help train Teaching Assistants or Preceptors who may be helping your classes, especially since a current student will be part of the tutorial!
