‘Bitmoji whisperer’: Metro Atlanta teachers recreate classrooms onlineExcerpt from the Atlanta Journal Constitution on August 14, 2020

“It’s fun and creative in a space where teachers feel like they don’t have a lot of control. At least I can control what’s happening in my virtual classroom,” said Jennifer Hall, an Educational Technology Specialist for Atlanta Public Schools.
Hall’s nickname is the “Bitmoji whisperer” because she’s helped about 100 people design or makeover their cartoon avatars. Her own likeness, whom she calls “Jenmoji,” bears a striking resemblance to her creator, except the online Jen is “ageless and timeless.” No gray hair, no wrinkles.
“People were like, ‘I need to have ways to engage my students,’ and the virtual classrooms just took off,” she said.
