Ask students to turn off their cameras before initiating a recorded lecture and if it is necessary to include the student(s) images in the recording, make sure to clearly explain it in advance to the class. When you are recording online lectures, be extra aware of the privacy of students.Background noises (such as coughs, washing machines, etc.) can be distracting. Mute all the participants at the beginning of your session.Open the session at least 10 minutes before it starts.Use polling (YouSeeU, Teams, Zoom) to ask questions, ask students to ask questions in the chat, or use breakout rooms so students can discuss in small groups.
