<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">This just came up in Dr. Rema Reynolds’ workshop in the
<i>Confronting Anti-Black Racism on College Campuses</i> training that Dr. Aletha Harven and CIENCIA organized (</span><a href="https://www.csustan.edu/ciencia/anti-black-racism-training">https://www.csustan.edu/ciencia/anti-black-racism-training</a><span style="color:#1F497D">).</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">What about taking a co-creation approach? You could discuss it with your students on the first day of classes, see what they think/feel about it, explain why you’d like everyone to have their video on, and see
if that’s the best way to encourage active participation in discussions. Students might have other suggestions—or agree to be responsible for participating actively if they need to have their video off. If the blank screens with names make it harder, maybe
you could walk students through adding a picture to their Zoom profile so you’d at least see their face.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Palatino">Greetings, </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Palatino"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:Palatino">I am teaching a graduate seminar that I’m teaching online for the first time, and I wanted to enquire if any faculty that have similar , discussion heavy, seminars and are requiring a “camera on” policy
during a synchronous Zoom session. Since my course is heavily discussion and case discussion based, I tend to encourage participation and students voicing informed opinions, and POVs; it’s always been a challenge to try and get them to talk during an in-class
session. However I feel it may be even harder to get a discussion going if I’m staring at blank Zoom screens, but students may have issues such as childcare, or lack of access to a camera. Has anyone fashioned a syllabus statement that addresses that and encourages
a “Camera-on” policy, and yet (the policy) is mindful of student constraints? Or should I not even ask for such a requirement?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
