We have been using ZOOM's immersive views and at the moment, prefer them compared to the traditional grid of heads, or the head shot options offered in these examples. It 'seems' to reduce zoom fatigue a little, but hard to know how much of that is novelty or Hawthorne effect. It will take some robust research design to tell us if these blended environments are better, but exciting times for sure. Still a little voice in the back of my head is saying that we we are not taking full advantage of virtual spaces, and just replicating face to face environments. I remember when second life started and there was a land rush to buy space there. Many Universities brought some 2nd life real estate and then proceeded to build a lecture theatre!

As unis eye more ‘Instagram-worthy’ campus experiences, they shouldn't treat online teaching as a cheap and easy option | Digital Learning - beyond eLearning and Blended Learning | Scoop.it

Is the Solution to College Zoom Fatigue … a Different Video Platform?

Is the Solution to College Zoom Fatigue … a Different Video Platform? | Digital Learning - beyond eLearning and Blended Learning | Scoop.it
Just as the pandemic is loosening its grip and schools and colleges move back to in-person classes, new startups are offering video platforms they say do a better job for teaching than Zoom or other mass-market systems.

One of the latest entrants is Engageli (pronounced, “engage-ly”), which a few months ago scored $14.5 million in funding. The basic pitch is that the platform was built with teaching in mind, meaning it has features like polling built in in ways that quickly return results to professors. And the system uses a metaphor that students sit at “tables,” meaning that instructors can easily organize students into groups that can have their own breakout discussions.
