What are reasons people do video conferencing?
Coronavirus is keeping us away from family members, friends and coworkers. But video conferencing is bringing us back together.
Many people in quarantine are doing video conferencing. They are meeting with coworkers. They are having job interviews. They are taking classes online.
How do you look your best in a video conference? Here are some ideas, or "tips".
Make sure there is a nice background behind you, like a bookshelf or even a plain wall. Make sure it looks clean and not messy.
Put the camera a little above eye level. And make sure there is enough light. You can use sunlight or lamps. Dress nicely for your meeting. Wear solid colors. Patterns and stripes don't look good on the screen.
Smile at the people in your meeting. Make eye contact too. How do you make eye contact? Look at the camera. Don't look at the screen.
Sit up straight. This will make you look confident. When someone speaks, bend forward a bit. This shows you're interested in what they're saying.
Follow these tips. And soon you'll be a video-conferencing pro!

Time to Change Your Business
Business
How are companies changing the way they do business because of COVID-19?
Life today is different than it was before the COVID-19 crisis. Millions of people are staying home. This hurts companies; they can't make money. Many businesses are closing. But others are finding creative ways to stay open. For example, people stopped going to restaurants. So many restaurants started delivering food.
Ruedi Maguire is a fashion designer. He used to make beautiful dresses. But people aren't buying many dresses now. So, Maguire started making scrubs. Scrubs are special shirts and pants that doctors, nurses and other hospital workers wear.
Spiffy is a car cleaning company. During the crisis, people are driving less. So, Spiffy started cleaning the insides of buildings.
Before COVID-19, Flying Elephant Productions made furniture for big outdoor events. But COVID-19 stopped these events. What did Flying Elephant Productions do? They saw that many people are working from home; these people need desks. So Flying Elephant Productions now makes desks.

Science & Technology
How can robots help people during these days of COVID-19?
Many countries are using robots during the corona crisis. The robots do many jobs that humans usually do. Robots can get very close to people with COVID-19, so humans don't have to.
Schools in China use robots to check schoolchildren for fever. In some hospitals in Europe and South Africa, robots clean patients' rooms. They bring patients medicine.
There is a robot nurse called Tommy. Patients use Tommy to talk to doctors and nurses who are in a different room.
Robots keep people safe outside, too. In Dubai, robots spray disinfectant to clean the air. In Singapore, a robot dog walks around parks. It reminds people to stand far from each other. In the UK and US, robots bring food and other important things to people who are stuck at home.
What's another thing that's good about robots? They don't need to sleep. When they get "tired" you just recharge them and send them back to work!
