A camera being on does not necessarily equate to a student paying attention. I tested with some colleagues and Meet does not notify you if a student has muted you or has switched to another internet page/something else entirely, so just because a student's camera is on doesn't mean they're actually paying attention at all.

I think requiring students to have cameras on is an equity issue. Some students may not have strong access to internet that allows them to have their camera on. Others may not feel comfortable letting their teacher and classmates see what's going on in the backgrounds. Forcing students to have cameras on feels like policing them in their own homes. I'm going to encourage students to put them on if they feel comfortable doing so but requiring them to be on feels the same to me as forcing a student to speak in class.

Can we require cameras on, they don't have to say anything, but if SEL is a priority we need to see our amazing students.  Can an agreement be at least the first 10 mins and the last 10 mins.  I think this would be a fair compromise.  They sit in class with "cameras on". Thanks
