This post reports on a small study of students' use of Zoom cameras. What we should learn is that there are many reasons why they might turn the camera off or on - to each a sandwich, to yawn, to answer a question, whatever - 31 reasons in all. It also offers some advice (though of course a study of 70 students does not provide anything like enough evidence to infer best practices) with suggestions on how to retain student engagement and camera use strategies.
