Try the 20/20 /20 Rule: every 20 minutes, look away from the screen to something else 20m in the distance. For 20 seconds.

Plan for the Winter 2021 semester.
Most programs will be a combination of real-time (synchronous) and pre-recorded (asynchronous) delivery and use a combination of online tools, such as Blackboard and Microsoft Teams.
