Cameras are off, you ask a question, and no one responds. Does this sound familiar? Then this would be a great session for you! I feel like my research was very much beneficial because I had students both say and show that the activities that I have begun to implement in distance learning have increased engagement for students. Even if the activities that I did in the classroom were not as engaging as activities I would do for in person learning, I saw high levels of enjoyment from students. I explored using online labs for science class to keep students engaged when we were not in person learning. This could be applicable for all grades, as I see that you could adapt these online simulations to help many different students be successful in the classroom.
