Ask HN: How to make zoom classes more interactive?

[christianjung]

I'm teaching a data science class at a non-profit and due to corona, it'll be virtual. I've been looking for some ways to make the class more interactive and not me just talking to blank faces for 2hrs.

I've used https://www.polleverywhere.com/ before, but I'm afraid I'll go beyond their free plan.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I wanted to ask this because the other day, I was in literally the worst zoom of all time and want to make sure I don't repeat that for my students.

Flip the class and use breakout rooms.
