This was Michael’s invitation posted to https://groups.io/g/webheadsinaction/
https://groups.io/g/webheadsinaction/message/32517

Calling all Webheads.  Join us for another Zoom meeting on Monday, April 6th at Noon UTC to talk about Life in the Time of COVID 19 – an opportunity to spend some time together and talk about how you’re spending your lockdown days. Or anything else that may be on your mind 🙂 In Vance’s Zoom Room

Approximately 25 colleagues answered he call and here’s the video: https://youtu.be/V90t2Gssf-U

What was this about?

This was the second of what we hope will become a revival of the regular Webheads in Action weekly meetings that were held regularly for the first decade of this century in various online spaces, traditionally at noon UTC on Sundays.

These meetings tend to be free-form and are tailored to the interests of whomever turns up, but If anyone asks, Vance can explain TALIN – Teaching and Learning in IsolatioN https://tinyurl.com/talin2020

20:33:28 From Susan Marandi : yes
20:33:29 From Sus Nyrop : my younger granddaughter age 8m is on a private school following the ideas of Celestin Freinet where students are supposed to make their own personal schedule. She is doing amazingly well!

20:34:31 From Hala Fawzi : Hello Carla 🙂
20:34:39 From Susan Marandi : I agree, Vicky
20:34:42 From Vicky Saumell : Thanks, Chris
20:35:13 From Vance Stevens : There’s been a request for more about this from Sus, Celestin Freinet where students are supposed to make their own personal schedule.

20:40:47 From Michael Coghlan : https://ecovillage.org/solution/freinet-pedagogy/
20:41:23 From Michael Coghlan : Helloooooo Carla 🙂
20:41:39 From RitaZ : thank you Michael
20:41:42 From Susan Marandi : Hi Carla! 🙂
20:42:29 From Nina Liakos : Celestin FREINET
20:42:32 From Chris Fry : I’m trying out the idea of using my mobile phone to chat, as on my ipad the chat covers most of the screen
20:42:59 From Nina Liakos : Chris, you can adjust the size of the chat screen once you’ve detached it.
20:43:40 From Nina Liakos : Get out of full screen view first
20:44:25 From Susan Marandi : Congrats!
20:44:32 From Chris Fry : I can’t on my ipad or at least I can’t see how. On a computer it’s all easier
20:46:12 From Nina Liakos : True, I always forget that
20:46:13 From Helaine Marshall : All I can discover is that you can maximize the chat – and then pull it to make a vertical strip the full height of the screen
20:46:47 From Nina Liakos : Yes that’s what I’ve done, I have it running along the entire right side of the screen
20:46:54 From Sus Nyrop : I want to add that the Freinet school was early on adapting technology, such as tape recurring and photography, sending books and pictures to other s friendship schools around the country (and other parts of the world). lMuch later France was rashly on having a teletext based info and exchange system, meaNING THAT ORDINARY PEOPLE AND SCHOOLS WERE SO READY TO ADAPT THE INTERNET IN THE CLASSROOM.
