Laura Goodin on Teaching Online

• Laura Goodin is a writer and a ringer and, luckily for all of us, a remote teacher of ringing.
• Laura first tried her hand at ringing at St. Andrew's, Enfield (Dove's listing, heritage listing). She now rings at the St. James Old Cathedral in Melbourne, Australia.
• Laura is also the founder of the Ringing Room Take-Hold Lounge, a public facebook group (no login necessary to view/read) where hundreds of ringers coordinate online practices, performances, and classes.
• [Note that while the Take-Hold Lounge is premised on the use of Ringing Room (UK server, NA server), interested ringers may want to look at either Handbell Stadium (motion-controller inputs, Unity engine) or Muster (Abel/Beltutor/Beltower P2P coordination) as alternatives. The three are fundamentally-different technologies, designed to serve different audiences and priorities.]
• That's right, classes! In this episode we mainly discuss a class Laura's been teaching introductory ringing, completely online. But that's not all being organized in the Take-Hold Lounge: as of release, a workshop on calls in Plain Bob Doubles has just concluded, and we hear Laura pondering a class introducing Grandsire.
• Finally, Laura tells us a bit about St. James Old Cathedral's upcoming Festival of Bells; to let her know if you incorporate any of these ideas into your next event!
• Finally, I ask you to please consider providing feedback on these first six episodes in this survey.

Thank you, friends.
