Hi, I had occasion last month to teach a two-week, two-hour-per-day lecture series on R via Zoom for the ICPSR Summer Program -- the website for the lectures is at <https://socialsciences.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Courses/R/ICPSR/index.html>. I used RStudio and mostly displayed my desktop via one monitor in a two-monitor setup. That allowed me to show the website (or Canvas site) for the lectures, PDF slides, or the RStudio window, and to have the other monitor free to control the Zoom session. Most of the time, perhaps 1.5 hours per session, I displayed the RStudio window. To set the size of the fonts in RStudio, I tested in a dummy Zoom session that I viewed on a small laptop prior to the start of the lecture series. I hope this helps, John John Fox, Professor Emeritus McMaster University Hamilton, Ontario, Canada web: https://socialsciences.mcmaster.ca/jfox/ On 2020-08-14 4:29 a.m., peter dalgaard wrote:> [Sorry about the misfire a second ago...] > > As others have said, for deeper questions, try RStudio's own lists or R-sig-teaching. > > However, FWIW, I seem to have gotten away with just using a separate virtual desktop with my usual work setup, and then switch to it when necessary. This was for Panopto video recordings, but Zoom et al. should be much the same. Compared to physical lecturing it is actually somewhat easier, because you don't need to worry so much about projector shortcomings, readability from the back row, etc. > > -pd > >> On 13 Aug 2020, at 20:58 , Jonathan Greenberg <jgreenberg at unr.edu> wrote: >> >> Folks: >> >> I was wondering if you all would suggest some helpful RStudio >> configurations that make recording a session via e.g. zoom the most useful >> for students doing remote learning.
