I had an OU Live meeting last night which seemed particularly intense in terms of the demands that I was under. One of the students was having problems with sound so was typing about this problem in the chat box. I was feeling under pressure to support her as I also spoke and manipulated the white board and also tried to encourage engagement from the other students in the group. Sometimes the demands on tutors can be quite extreme when doing OU Live sessions.
