What's a LiveLesson Room?
This post was last updated on:
All of your teachers here at Minnesota Connections Academy have a virtual classroom called a LiveLesson room. LL rooms are where we host LL Sessions. These are live classes - opportunities to learn from your teacher live and also to interact with other students.
But our LL rooms are also great places to work one on one with a teacher. If you have a question, you can stop by one of your Biology teachers' LiveLesson rooms. Think of coming to my LL room like stopping by a teacher’s office in a traditional school.
A LiveLesson room is a great place to meet if you have questions because:
- We can use our microphones to speak with each other.
- We can share videos, documents, or assignments with you so that it is easier to communicate
- We can share our screen with you to show you how to do something on the computer
- You can share your screen if, say, we want to work on an assignment together
Frequently asked questions:
Can other students see me?
- Not unless you turn your webcam on. Teachers will let you know if there is an opportunity to turn your webcam on.
Do I have to use my microphone?
- If we are meeting one on one or in a small group, then yes, you should. During large group LL sessions, most of the time you will not be using your microphone (unless we ask you to).
The LiveLesson room scares me.
- Nothing to be scared of! The LL room is the main way teachers interact with students. They’re like our virtual classrooms. We understand if you feel a bit intimidated coming to the large group LL sessions at first. If that is the case, book a meeting with one of the Biology teachers and we can give you a tour.
