In some longer sessions (particularly with distance learning residentials), we run activities using padlet, paper based resources and online resources as a method of multiple means of engagement .

Give people roles in a group. One person could respond to the Vevox if someone else isn't comfortable

Sometimes it's difficult to design a session for different abilities, because it's not always apparent what those abilities are until the actual session is being delivered. Sometimes designing on the fly - things change depending on assumptions, what the tutors has said the students are like. The key takeaway is to go in with options and tailor the session as needed (sometimes!).

Offer different levels of activity during a session e.g. a simple Library Search activity followed by a more complex database search with additional filters, keywords etc can help to engage students who have varying levels of understanding.

Ideally we offer different versions of the same session so that they are accessible to everyone. Live session, recorded session and then script to appeal to different kinds of learners. Also having tutorials for people we miss in the other sessions.

I think this was is easier to incorporate into teaching, because we are able to use alternative formats, e.g. text, talk, visual, videos, use of images, discussions, talk and chalk, interactivity. We think structuring all of this is key, so that we don't overwhelm students with different modes of information or volume of information. Scaffolding this is key.

In a face to face session, using Padlet or Menti are both good tools for response and engagement. Using both a QR code and URL on a slide allows students to access the activity before or during the session if shared on a Moodle area with session slides. This also supports accessibility needs.

Make intended learning outcomes clear and link them to the activities so students have the opportunity to practice. Also linking to the assignment briefs if relevant!

For students who wish to remain anonymous in online sessions, having a Padlet, Menti etc that allows people to add questions, comments etc can help students feel supported.

Using the digital and online tools like menti, vexox, padlet, etc is important.

Important to have active and passive forms of interactivity (e.g. poll vs encouraging them to make notes) - I have a slide which i use to highlight different ways students can engage with the session.

Sometimes it's important to recognise the some students might be uncomfortable conversing with a relative stranger in the classroom - how do we create an environment which is less intimidating?

Creating a padlet for sessions where students can ask questions anonymously about the topic (either before, during, after the session)

Online learning presents lots of opportunity to provide materials and content in a variety of different formats, such as video, audio, text

Finding ways to involve everyone without putting individuals on the spot and making them feel uncomfortable - Padlet and Teams chats are really helpful here. Anything which is anonymous.
