Digital pedagogy in practice

A live session that is only a lecture in a smaller window wastes the fact that learners can do something while you wait. Decide what must be synchronous: a demonstration, a question that needs the group, a check you cannot postpone. Put explanation they can replay into a short recording or a text, and spend the live time on their work.

Presence is not the same as a camera left on. Asking for a product — a sentence, a diagram, a revised opening — tells you more and pressures people less than watching their rooms. Say in advance what will be recorded and what will be deleted. If you cannot justify keeping it, do not collect it.
