As teachers, students and their parents work to navigate this unfamiliar terrain, ideas have emerged to help improve the virtual classroom experience. We asked people on the frontlines of the digital learning environment to give us their best virtual classroom tips.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>Using live video to teach an online class can be a big adjustment for students and teachers. One of the biggest challenges is to get the tech and classroom setup right. Nothing spoils an online learning experience quite like poor audio, video that freezes or goes out of sync, poor lighting or user errors that slow down presentations and the integration of other virtual learning materials into the lesson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Improve Your Virtual Setup With Clear Audio and a Secure Connection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Teaching a class by live video conference is quite different than being in person with a room full of students. But there are some approaches we can draw from traditional classrooms that work quite well in a live, online environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow these guidelines to make sure your video, audio and internet setup are high quality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Use Headphones And A Microphone<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wired headphones with a built in microphone are often best. Bluetooth headphones and mics are convenient but sometimes lead to latency problems with audio. If this is an issue for you, try a wired microphone.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Check Your Internet Strength and Use an Ethernet Cable<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When evaluating your internet signal strength \u201cit\u2019s more about ping (signal delay) than bandwidth (Mbps)\u201d says Scott Beaver of <a href=\"https:\/\/learnwithdrscott.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Easy Hard Science<\/a>. You can check your internet strength by going to an online <a href=\"https:\/\/www.speedtest.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">internet speed test<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your ping should be below 100ms, though less than 50ms is ideal. To achieve the best possible internet from your location hardwire your connection with an ethernet cable rather than using wireless.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Keep Your Light Source Behind The Camera&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The positioning and type of lighting you use to illuminate your face during lessons can improve the virtual lesson experience significantly. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/teachinginhighered.com\/author\/bjsadmin\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bonni Stachowiak<\/a> of <a href=\"https:\/\/teachinginhighered.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Teaching in Higher Ed<\/a> the \u201clighting in the room makes a big difference in how welcoming you can be perceived to others\u201d during&nbsp; the lesson. \u201cYou want most of the light sources to be coming from in front of you, not behind you.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The warmth of the light also makes a difference. If your lessons are during the day, you can set up your workspace in front of a window so that the natural light is behind your camera lighting your face. If this isn\u2019t an option for you, there are many dimmable lighting setups or desk lamps that will work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Adjust the Level of the Camera&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bonni also recommends using something to raise your up camera or computer (if you are using a built in camera) so that the lens is level with your eyes or just slightly above them angled down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve used a stack of notebooks, a lap desk, and even a couple of pillows to accomplish this task. No one on the session is going to see what you have your laptop resting on, but they will notice if you are literally looking down at them the entire time.\u201d says Bonni.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Set Up Your Screen Name and Make Sure Everyone in The Household Respects Lesson Times<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMake sure the screen name on Zoom is the correct one for the child\u201d recommends Rivkie Berger of <a href=\"https:\/\/funandfunction.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Fun and Function<\/a>. It makes communicating in the digital classroom much easier, especially if you are using the chat feature. Additionally, make sure everyone in your household is aware of your lesson schedule. You want to avoid any unwanted noise including having family members wandering into the frame unexpectedly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Use a Lesson Transcript Generator So You Don\u2019t Miss Anything!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLesson transcript apps help students by creating accurate transcripts so students don&#8217;t miss a thing from any remote class\u201d say David Claxton of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.otter.ai\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Otter Ai<\/a>. Teachers can get the app then distribute lesson notes to students and parents as needed. If your teacher isn\u2019t offering lesson transcripts, you should ask about this feature. Trying to take notes and engage in an online conversation can be more challenging than doing the same thing in person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Begin Lessons With an Interactive Game to Engage Young Students<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sarah Miller of <a href=\"https:\/\/homeschooling4him.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Homeschooling 4 Him<\/a> loves beginning virtual lessons with a game. \u201cThis helps pull the kids in and get them excited to be there. It gives the kids a chance to connect with each other and to have fun. Then, when I am ready to ask them to pay attention to the lesson they are more likely to do so.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Games like scavenger hunts allow the kids to hunt for items around the house, like a favorite toy, that they will be excited to share with their classmates. Sarah recommends asking the students following up questions that help both students and their teacher get to know each other and relax before diving into the day&#8217;s work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Supplement Online Lessons With Small Study Pod Groups<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Arash Fayz, Co-Founder and Executive Director of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.latutors123.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LA Tutors 123<\/a>&nbsp; suggests organizing study pod groups or getting a tutor to supplement learning outside of the digital classroom, with social distancing of course.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe all need a break from staring at a screen all day, so a lot of families are choosing to create small group pods with 4-5 similarly aged students. Working with a private tutor who can meet with you in-person in a safe outdoor setting will help break up the screen time with some all-so-important socialization and those intangible aspects of in-person education. Students in high school or college can also meet outdoors and use whiteboards or email to show each other work while respecting social distancing guidelines. Sometimes nothing beats an old-fashioned conversation when it comes to working out a problem or doing a group project.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8. Prioritize Quality Time over Quantity by Limiting the School Day to 2 to 4 Hours<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many of our experts were passionate about limiting the school day to a fewer hours than traditional learning and including ample movement breaks during the day. Digital learning shouldn\u2019t mimic exactly what happens on campus. Instead the school days should be limited to 2 to 4 hours depending on the student\u2019s age and ability.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe dedicated school day should only take 2-4 hours &#8211; unless your kids are really interested in the topic and want to keep diving in. Allow them the rest of the time to just be. Don\u2019t fear unstructured time. Don\u2019t try to keep your children from being bored. In fact, boredom in childhood has many life-long benefits, such as: cultivating creative thought, inspiring self-reflection, allowing for self-motivation, sparking decision-making, stimulating new personal interests, and fostering confidence and independence\u201d says Lindsey Wander, Founder and CEO of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.worldwisetutoring.com\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WorldWise Tutoring LLC<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alicia Hough of <a href=\"https:\/\/theproductanalyst.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Product Analyst<\/a> agrees: \u201cyour kids will get exhausted if they only attend virtual classes, which is why you should consider allowing break times.\u201d Virtual learning involves a lot of screen time and can be especially exhausting for students who have trouble concentrating in the virtual format.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9. Make Older Students Responsible for Organizing Their Own Schedules to Improve Accountability<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Virtual learning can be a great opportunity for older students to take responsibility for managing their own schedules and might actually help with follow through for students who struggle with task management. According to Robert Johnson founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sawinery.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sawinery<\/a> and father of two shares \u201cif you let students take the lead in the creation of their schedule, they will feel responsible in accomplishing it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can start by giving the students some guidelines and asking them questions like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>How much do you think you can get done today?<\/em><br><em>What are you excited to work on today?<\/em><br><em>How long do you think this task should take?<\/em><br><em>If you were to break up this assignment into 3 parts, how would you do that?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10. Keep Students Engaged With Classroom Narration that Catches Them Doing Right!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Classroom narration is a great technique to keep students engaged during lessons and involves praising students and naming behavior they are exhibiting in the classroom.&nbsp; Melissa Scatena, a former educator and CEO of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scattered.solutions\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Scattered Solutions<\/a> gives these examples:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAfter setting expectations, scan the room and narrate 2-3 scholars who are meeting your expectations. This<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>sounds like, Scholar name is tracking me or Scholar name is sitting up straight with his\/her eyes glued to the screen. Nice job! Continue narration throughout the lesson. For example, once scholars are directed to get started working on a math problem, say, Scholar name has her pencil to paper and is focused on solving neatly!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This helps students&nbsp; feel connected to each other, engage in the lesson and reinforces positive behavior that you want to promote in your online classroom.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Author and speaker <a href=\"https:\/\/jessicaspeer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Jessica Speer<\/a> suggests that teachers focus on catching students \u201cdoing right\u201d because recognizing small successes builds confidence and encourages growth. Try phrases such as \u201cI appreciate how you were at your desk this morning at 9am.\u201d \u201cDo you know you just worked for 15 minutes straight? Great work!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">11. Use Body Language to Keep Students Engaged and Energy High<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Teaching is a high energy job, and doing it online means focusing that energy and paying special attention to body language and presentation so that your personality can come through.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alison Henderson of <a href=\"https:\/\/movingimageconsulting.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Moving Image Consulting<\/a> says that \u201cStudents and teachers should sit back from their screens so more gestures can be seen in the view. Everyone needs as many body language signals as they can get to help them understand each other and build trust. By nature, we don\u2019t trust if we can\u2019t see gestures.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">12. Get Regular Feedback From Students<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Justin Menda, founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rocket-prep.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rocket Prep, LLC<\/a>&nbsp; is a proponent of involving students in the learning process through regular feedback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c I use online forms that my students fill out at the end of each session to help them plan their time between sessions, and at the beginning of the following session to assess how the plan worked and what could be better. While they&#8217;re doing these activities, I offer them as much guidance and feedback as they ask for. In the short term, this helps them stay on task and work effectively. In the long term, it helps them improve their understanding of how to work effectively and gain comfort with their own unique constellations of skills and challenges. It also provides a lot of opportunities for us to turn situations that might ordinarily provoke anxiety or withdrawal (e.g. not getting any homework done) into opportunities to learn about what actually works and do better next time.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Best Tips Are the Ones That Work For You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As you navigate the online learning environment and research different ways to make the experience more engaging and enjoyable for everyone you\u2019ll come across a lot of ideas and things to try. Ultimately, the best tips will be the things that resonate with you and work with your students. Try our different techniques until you find a good fit for your virtual learning experiences. Whether you are a teacher, student or parent you should communicate openly with others in your virtual classroom about what is working best for you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the foreseeable future, schools all across the United States have embraced distance learning to help stop the spread of COVID-19.
