Here's a few of the top arguments.
Live lessons:
- Chance to engage with your class
Instantly how they’re learning with live feedback
Use polls and quizzes to make lessons fun and for assessment
Real interaction
Lots of time wasted waiting for everyone to join
Difficult for younger children if parents are trying to work as well
Safeguarding risks
Recorded lessons
- Students can rewind and watch videos to work at their own pace
Students can choose when to do the work
Can be reused across classes and over time
Able to edit and re-record as needed
Can combine with independent tasks without teacher having to sit and wait
Feels more distant
Feedback becomes harder
No interaction
