Technology is not my friend (March 2020)

Aaargh. My camera won’t work in Skype. Why won’t it work. Look it up online. Check settings. Privacy. Uninstall and reinstall. Check a Youtube video. I have no idea which version of windows I’m running. My screen doesn’t look like that. Now it won’t even log in. Right. The nuclear option. Back to factory settings. Tapping F11. What do you mean I don’t have enough space to reimage windows? Back and forwards. Refresh. Finally! But why don’t things just work?


So that was how I spent the first two hours this morning.


Soon we’ll all be preparing our teaching for the new online environment and while my ability to help from a technological perspective might be limited I can offer some support for how to turn your delivery into something that will work, whether it’s pre-session or live. So if you want to know more feel free to contact me by email, by phone or in teams. Just not in Skype.
