Why Zoom Fatigue Occurs and How Educators Can Overcome It by Erik Ofgang (breaks, movement, off-camera, etc.)

Why Zoom Fatigue Occurs and How Educators Can Overcome It by Erik Ofgang (breaks, movement, off-camera, etc.) | iGeneration - 21st Century Education (Pedagogy & Digital Innovation) | Scoop.it
Overcoming Zoom fatigue. Teachers are going above and beyond in trying to engage students through video. They may not realize just staring at a screen can wear out a student’s eyes.

This article gives valuable information on best practices to avoid fatigue and burnout. Something to keep in mind is the equipment you use. Having monitors that promote eye care and reduce strain will help with self-care. Having a mobile setup so you're only in place for a short period of time. Utilizing an iPad or laptop promotes mobility, thus having the option to work outside.

Here We find brief teaching of classes and online meetings, We are all aware that because of COVID-19, all of us have learned to value people, work, our companies and employees, students and teachers, here is a clear example of expensive work face to face at a distance, this article is full of emotions because, through the screen of online meetings, We have had to be a little more transparent with the people who see us through them, We give a little more complicity and We want to help ourselves a little, even if it is only with words of encouragement, with this We will provide a stronger presence through a screen.
