      Thread: UVic tentatively announced plans for the fall. We are basically online except for “experiential courses” (read: some nursing, select grad labs). Student conversation on the UVic subreddit shows a couple of things:

      Students do not know what experiential learning is, but they know double speak when they hear it; and many of them are going to hold their noses and take courses. Many are pissed at the spring experience.

      But they want an education and income in the fall. The majority are unemployed and broke. This means we all need to be aware of digital inequities. No videos, no synchronous lectures and so on. No overpriced textbooks.

      Our teaching and learning centre has been privileging video over audio and this is a mistake. Sure video is flashier and would seem to be a good replacement for FtoF. Record audio as much as possible, post assignments in discussion boards etc...

      By audio do you mean narrated PPT? My impression was that students like short video clips because they get a person with affect, facial expressions, etc. Am I wrong?

      I think it depends on their bandwidth. Do they share their connection with five people? Then Zoom will drop. So sure, video is great, if it works. That’s where a tech survey comes in handy.

      I was thinking of pre-recorded asynchronous video segments.

          That works for many students! I coordinate a huge first year writing course with many sections. We are using low bandwidth teaching. Here is a link to a source we are using https://ecampusontario.pressbooks.pub/kylemackie/  but there are loads of resources about asynchronous videos, particularly at MIT
