Distance+Learning

➢ Audio delays of one to two seconds is common. ➢ Always assume that other students and your instructor can see and hear you, even if you cannot see or hear them. ➢ Use your tent name sign until the instructor directs you not to. ➢ Participate in roll call attendance by speaking in a normal clear voice. ➢ Speak to the camera. ➢ Don’t expect to be entertained – you must participate! ➢ Follow video conferencing etiquette rules: o Ask questions when prompted. o Respond to questions when asked in turn. Do not call out responses. o Use names to direct questions to specific people. o Avoid making background noise such as rustling papers, playing with jewelry, drumming on the desk, clicking a pen, or having side conversations. The microphones are very sensitive! o Don’t leave the room unless absolutely necessary and announce when you re-enter the room. o If you cannot hear or cannot see what is being presented clearly, tell your instructor through your facilitator. ➢ Use email to ask questions of the instructor outside of class time. Remember to use email etiquette: o Choose your words carefully. o Proofread before sending your message. o Do not use text-speak as email is not text messaging. o Do not use all capital letters as that is considered shouting
