Just finished 3 x 3-hour Zoom lecture/tutorials for @Sydney_Uni Online Journalism students. Some learnings: 1) Online classes are TIRING for students and lecturers. Some of my students had 3 online lectures today. Go for sustained energy throughout, don't overload at the start.
2) It takes students time to switch their microphones on and off. Allow 10-15 seconds if you're asking someone a question. In a classroom they'd know you're talking to them immediately and respond but online takes that little bit more time and patience.
3) At the start of the lecture, I went through the slides to identify points / slides where I'd be asking questions, so they could really focus during those moments. NO ONE can maintain razor-sharp "will there be a test on this later?" attention for 3 hours.

Over the past 4 years I've run approximately 50 mobile journalism workshops for newsrooms. Here are some thoughts for media outlets keen to get reporters using their phones. #mojo [THREAD]
Best practice: create a standard mojo kit. The basics: a tripod, tripod mount, an external microphone and good quality USBC or Lightning adaptor to connect traditional 3.5mm microphones to the phone. One of the best clip-mics is the @BOYAmic BY-M1. boya-mic.com/lavaliermicrop… #mojo
Challenges you can expect if reporters use their own phones: unusual file formats, inability to record in 1080p / 4K, mix of personal / work content. If you can, add a standard phone to mojo kits. Needn't be LATEST model; most phones from the past 3 years are good enough. #mojo
