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

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.

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. Thoughts?
