Are Greencard applications with submitted I-485 prior to COVID being processed right now? Any idea of what the throughput looks like?

Thats a great idea. So fucking obvious. I think that's a good MVP for this approach.
Thanks

I really like the idea of digital projectors. That might be a really high-leverage way to change how the classes are conducted.
Do you know of any examples where this has shown an impact?

Thanks for that feedback. This is precisely the concern I have. I had looked into the popular ed tech gadgets out there but just felt they weren't really viable for exactly the reasons you mentioned.
Part of the reason I asked was to see if anyone could suggest a different approach. I do think there is a way to achieve a win by focusing down the goal and working within the constraints you describe.
I full expect to do some onboarding work e.g. create videos / instructions etc. I'm looking for the right project kit to get them started. The equivalent for my Grandpa's generation was a radio. I wonder what today's "gateway project" would be?
