ALT Connect students’ video use and eye contact time to participation points, grading, or school attendance. Remove students from the meeting if their videos are not on. Trick students into turning on their videos (e.g., for a class dance party). Give extra credit to students who have their video on. Do this: Give choices; conduct real-time check-ins; use digital assessment tools. Why does it matter? PRIVACY. Students might be uncomfortable displaying their living space to their peers. SAFETY. Students (and their family members) may not want their image captured, recorded, or shared. Students could be cyberbullied if a classmate takes a screenshot of their video. EQUITY. Students might have unreliable Internet access, low bandwidth, devices without video capabilities, or limited access to a device. PERSONAL. Students might feel shy or anxious to be on camera.
