[quote=Anonymous]Yep. I teach at the college level and I have mostly moved away from lecturing because all the students bring their laptops and just do other stuff during class. It distracts the people sitting nearby who are trying to pay attention (it's hard to keep your eyes away from a video or interesting website that someone 2 ft in front of you is browsing... pre-Covid of course when the desks were crammed together). Now I do mostly flipped classes where students have to watch videos that I created before coming to class and they use class time to work with each other on problems, discussion, etc. Now they might browse a little if there is some downtime waiting for other groups to finish but I try to prevent that by engaging with the groups that are done early. So this can be dealt with by designing classes a certain way but it's more challenging in this time of social distancing. [/quote]
