When asked, students provided refreshing, objective candor indicated in the following:
| It's cool to interact with different schools. | |
| I get to use the technology. | |
| It was difficult to horse around too much since anyone could be watching. | |
| The experiments were neat because of the document camera. | |
| I didn't like that the teacher had the ability to zap you off the screen. | |
| I feel uncomfortable answering questions while people I don't know are watching. | |
| The camera zooming in on you to answer (a question) and you're not sure you have the right one (answer). | |
| Continue using it (distance learning technology)-it's very useful and effective. | |
| The best thing is you really do learn things from distance learning-you are kinda forced to pay attention. | |
| It was fun. | |
| I'd like to meet the other class in person. | |
| I'm used to raising my hand instead of pressing a button. | |
| The other class is really smart and I learn things from them. | |
| I respond more because I love being on camera!. | |
| I like it because it is sooo different! I've never seen something like this. | |
| You are on camera which I love! And you are expected to act more mature. | |
| You have a teacher, a pen, a pencil, paper, and a chalkboard. You learn, they teach and it's the basically the same thing to me. |
