A Spanish teacher swapped textbooks for technology mid-shutdown, and watched usage climb.

Usage soared; he just couldn't watch it happen
When buildings closed, Spanish teacher Kenny Wolleat's distance-learning curriculum still depended on a textbook that no longer fit how his students were learning. He implemented Mango Classroom to supplement it, replacing the textbook with something students could work through on their own time and at their own pace.
Usage climbed sharply. The one thing he could not do from a distance was see it land, which is what he was waiting to get back to the classroom for.
