<p>Dear All,</p>
<p>Some of you may want to use a visualizer for next semester for
doing problems by hand etc. There are many types just now with a
wide range of prices (some have increased by a factor of 3 since
last summer!). One which I have been told is OK is:</p>
<p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0868H9NN8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1">https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0868H9NN8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1</a></p>
<p>It is also a good idea to get a microphone as many built-in mics
e.g. on laptops, are not that good. One such mic is:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/KLIMTM-Talk-Microphone-Compatible-Professional/dp/B072V56NKC/ref=sr_1_3?crid=15FVL0KDLCBBI&dchild=1&keywords=klim+microphone&qid=1607458877&sprefix=klim+micr%2Caps%2C160&sr=8-3">https://www.amazon.co.uk/KLIMTM-Talk-Microphone-Compatible-Professional/dp/B072V56NKC/ref=sr_1_3?crid=15FVL0KDLCBBI&dchild=1&keywords=klim+microphone&qid=1607458877&sprefix=klim+micr%2Caps%2C160&sr=8-3</a><br>
<br>
and it works well.<br>
<br>
You may then also need a USB splitter:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sabrent-4-Port-Individual-Switches-HB-UM43/dp/B00JX1ZS5O/ref=sr_1_3?crid=24D76I0YT9HUP&dchild=1&keywords=usb+splitter&qid=1607459045&sprefix=usb+%2Caps%2C187&sr=8-3">https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sabrent-4-Port-Individual-Switches-HB-UM43/dp/B00JX1ZS5O/ref=sr_1_3?crid=24D76I0YT9HUP&dchild=1&keywords=usb+splitter&qid=1607459045&sprefix=usb+%2Caps%2C187&sr=8-3</a><br>
</p>
<p>Please order for home delivery and keep total costs below £150
(otherwise contact me). Charge it to account TEA1054-100 and
Catherine (cc'ed) will authorise. <br>
</p>
<p>Regards,</p>

<p>Dear All,</p>
<p>A wee reminder of today's Zoom meet 4-5pm (see Zoom details
below) to share online lessons from Semester 1 teaching. <br>
</p>
<p>An irresponsible rogue suggested that, as it will end 5pm-ish
Friday on the last day of teaching following a hectic
semester, we could end the session with a chat and a can of
beer (or a glass of fine vintage claret for the Profs). <br>
</p>
<p>Sounds good to me!<br>
</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>
<p>Brian.</p>

<p>Dear All,</p>
<p>Many thanks for your responses. The best time is 4-5pm
Friday 27 November, so please put in your diary.</p>
<p>If any staff have learned any useful methods/tips, or
mistakes you have learned from (!), to pass on to
colleagues during their own Sem 1 teaching, could you
please pass these on to Alison who will collect these for
use in the discussion.</p>
<p>Many thanks,</p>
<p>Brian.<br>

<p>Dear All,</p>
<p>The University has informed us that the first ~3 weeks
of Semester 2 will all be online, to be followed by
blended learning and a shift to face-to-face teaching as
conditions allow. <br>
</p>
<p>Alison has kindly agreed to summarise the methods
learnt from Semester 1 online teaching for those staff
about to embark on preparing online material for
Semester 2.</p>
Efficient methods to get pre-prepared recorded material,
transcripts, Zoom recordings etc onto MyPlace will be
demonstrated. <b>This will save you time</b> by learning
from the mistakes and tricks that Semester 1 lecturers
have made! <br>
