Summary: <br> <a href="http://collegepreppodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/Screen-Shot-2022-01-06-at-11.44.02-AM.png"></a><br> <br> <br> <br> Students are hesitant to turn their videos on in zoom classes. What other ways are there to participate effectively in virtual (and in person) classes? <br> <br> <br> <br> Gretchen shares some wisdom from a recent teacher PD she taught. Specifically, she and Megan discuss:<br> <br> <br> <br> * the relationship between participation and engagement and motivation,* why turning the camera on in a virtual class is not the best sign of engagement* a unique “Participation Bingo” game that she came up with to teach teachers how to help students participate* and some specific examples of things students and teachers can do to break participation skills down into bite size parts. <br> <br> <br> <br> If you’d like to remain in conversation with Gretchen about any of these ideas, please sign up for her next FREE Q&amp;A at <a href="http://www.gretchenwegner.com/live" data-type="URL" data-id="www.gretchenwegner.com/live">www.gretchenwegnerc.com/live.</a><br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
