[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Posted this in another thread, but may be of interest here.  I just listened to a presentation from my kid's elementary school. If you opt out of being recorded, your child has camera and microphone off in the main classroom. But they are encouraged to use reactions, respond to polls, and use the chat window to participate. In addition, breakout rooms aren't recorded, so they can have camera and microphone on there. Recordings will be posted for 72 hours in the Canvas classroom, so access should be limited to only those students who are in that classroom. If you don't show up live and instead view the recordings later, there's a way to confirm to the office that you "attended" and you need to do some sort of discussion/engagement activity for your teacher to show that you were engaged with the learning.[/quote]

Didn’t I read somewhere that the chat function would be disabled?[/quote]

I saw that too.  So now screens off, but chats on.  :roll: [/quote]

I'm the poster who reported from my school.  It's possible my principal misspoke, so I wouldn't assume chat is an option if you've heard otherwise from your school or teachers.[/quote]

On the MCPS Zoom webinar this morning they said that if students turn off video and audio, the only options to interact will be chat and emoticons. It's the teacher's choice to turn on/off chat. [/quote]

Honestly, there really is no reason to go to the live class at this point.  The main goal is to record and there will be so many older kids who even if they show up, will turn off their screen and play video games or use their phone. Maybe use an emoticion.  LOL  This was terrible planning.  [/quote]
