Discussion Forum Questions
1. Not all platforms allow for virtual backgrounds. This question will consider platforms that do allow them. While virtual backgrounds help students maintain some privacy about their living space and family members, they are also seen as “distancing.” If you are teaching remotely in Fall, do you plan to use virtual backgrounds? In responding, consider the benefits and detriments of virtual backgrounds. Respond here.
2. Describe a technique from one of this session’s readings and how you plan to incorporate it into your teaching. Respond here.
