Challenge – After we moved to remote classrooms/delivery, maintaining a students attention span has been a challenge. On the face-to-face delivery, it was easier to recognize disengaged students and get them to focus but not easy in virtual classrooms.

How I worked around – Variety helps. Fewer PowerPoint Slides followed by a pop quiz or a kahoot. Embedded videos on slides also can get students attention. I sometimes change the topic and ask my students to do a quick poll on Zoom. All these strategies have been equally effective in maintaining student’s attention span and/or getting back the students to focus.
