Zoom has 300 million users on its platform daily! It has undoubtedly become the go-to app for <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">businesses that include schools, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/how-start-tutoring-business\/\">tutoring<\/a>, places of worship, enterprise and startup companies, and freelancers. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zoom meetings are quintessential in today\u2019s virtual world. However, Zoom lacks some key features that can help in increasing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/improve-student-engagement-course\/\">engagement<\/a> (like a performance leaderboard).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, all hosts struggle with keeping up the engagement in Zoom meetings. It is really easy for participants to slack off in online sessions. For instance, after some time, students start scrolling through social media, get attracted by the buzz of a notification on the phone, or start working on some of their pending tasks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to a report published by CNN, in 2004, the average attention on a screen was 2\u00bd minutes. Some years later, the attention span dropped to about 75 seconds. Now, people can only pay attention to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2023\/01\/11\/health\/short-attention-span-wellness\/index.html#:~:text=%E2%80%9CIn%202004%2C%20we%20measured%20the,to%20be%20about%2075%20seconds.\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">one screen for an average of 47 seconds<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Businesses on Zoom have to compete with an ever-evolving social media landscape and an onslaught of content on all platforms to keep their users engaged. One excellent solution to this problem is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/maximising-vilt-roi-through-gamification\/\">gamifying<\/a> the learners&#8217; experience<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0by creating a high-quality performance leaderboard on zoom. Let us go into detail on an engagement rubric in this article.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Engagement and its need<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Currently the engagement problem in live sessions is two-pronged<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Quantifying engagement<\/strong>: Who is really participating in your sessions. Who among your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/track-participant-talk-time-zoom\/\">participants is talking<\/a> or watching properly and how is getting distracted easily. In an in-person session teachers teachers get these signals through body language but how does one quantify and measure such metrics in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/top-5-best-lms-for-blended-learning\/\">blended<\/a> or online setting.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Increasing engagement<\/strong>: Once we quantify engagement how do we increase it. How do tutors incentivize learners to engage more. This is critical as more engagement translates to better learning outcomes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/zoom-analytics-engagement-retention\/\">Engagement in online meetings<\/a> refers to the active participation of participants in the session, which in turn promotes active learning and better learning outcomes. Ever since the Covid-19 pandemic dawned upon the world, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/improve-student-engagement-course\/\">engagement<\/a> in online meetings has been a topic buzz, with barely any practical solutions in the market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Online meetings provide a conducive environment for students to use their smartphones, watch television, talk to their friends, play video games, sleep, etc., all while meetings are on. This is why we NEED engagement in online discussions because <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/industries\/public-and-social-sector\/our-insights\/covid-19-and-learning-loss-disparities-grow-and-students-need-help\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">learning is suffering a great loss without it<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All these students who go on to slack off in online meetings will have significant learning gaps, leading to many difficulties in the future. Hence, we need to work on some methods to add engagement to online meetings, one of them being the engagement rubric.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Engagement rubrics in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/best-lms-with-zoom-integration\/\">Zoom class<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Lens - Transform your online sessions!\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aHrXFWdxKpc?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/www.wise.live\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As discussed earlier, engagement is quintessential to promoting the quality of online meetings and active learning. One such way to do this in a Zoom session is to administer an engagement rubric.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The engagement rubric is a list of parameters based on which the amount and quality of participation in an online meeting can be tracked. An engagement rubric can be used with the help of a performance leaderboard. In the next section, let\u2019s explore how you can create a performance leaderboard for your online class.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is a performance leaderboard?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1856\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/a-team-meeting-2.jpg\" alt=\"A team meeting where people are looking at a doc\" width=\"640\" height=\"457\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/a-team-meeting-2.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/a-team-meeting-2-300x214.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A performance leaderboard on Zoom uses an engagement rubric to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/maximising-vilt-roi-through-gamification\/\">gamify<\/a> zoom meetings. Participants can see a leaderboard updated live based on their performance in the meeting, and tutors can nudge the participants based on these statistics to participate in the classroom discussion better.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A performance leaderboard can revolutionize how businesses work, especially ed-tech startups. Material retention and engagement are tough in virtual settings, and the performance leaderboard can be the perfect accountability tool for learners. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.civicus.org\/index.php\/media-resources\/news\/blog\/4776-low-engagement-in-virtual-events-are-we-lacking-digital-confidence\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This article<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by Civicus highlights the importance of filling up the gaps in online communication to achieve greater online engagement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How can you create a performance leaderboard?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2284\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Leaderboard-versions-1.png\" alt=\"A screenshot of a performance leaderboard on Lens\" width=\"432\" height=\"808\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Leaderboard-versions-1.png 432w, https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Leaderboard-versions-1-160x300.png 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 432px) 100vw, 432px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A performance leaderboard works on an engagement rubric that ranks the participants. The easiest way to create a performance leaderboard in Zoom is by using <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getlens.io\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lens<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Some of the parameters for your engagement rubric, which are used in Lens, are listed below. However, they are not exhaustive. Feel free to chime in with your parameters to better fit your session\u2019s needs. Lens uses the following:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/track-participant-talk-time-zoom\/\"><b>Participant talk-time<\/b><\/a><b>: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A good participant talk-time ensures that the students understand the content taught by the teacher and that students ask and answer questions while absorbing material.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=eaJk__z00U8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Custom quizzes<\/a>: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To gauge the understanding of the material and what steps to take next, a teacher can create custom <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/conduct-quizzes-in-online-classes\/\">quizzes during the session<\/a> to make learning fun and rank the students scoring higher points.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Attentiveness: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The tutor can check which learners are actually on the Zoom meeting and which ones are solely browsing through other websites while keeping the Zoom meeting on in the background. They can be accordingly ranked on the performance leaderboard.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Asking Questions<\/strong>: Learners get points for asking questions during the sessions. If other learners upvote these questions &#8211; learners get extra points.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Camera<\/strong>: Learners can get points for keeping their camera on.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The best thing &#8211; its all automated. This means learners keep on getting these points automatically. And if you choose to integrate Lens with your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/top-5-lms-usa\/\">LMS<\/a> then these points can be accumulated over time and you could give your learners badges or discounts.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Advantages of a performance leaderboard<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1796\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Woman-teaching-guitar.jpg\" alt=\"A woman teaching guitar online on a macbook\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Woman-teaching-guitar.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.wise.live\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Woman-teaching-guitar-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Increase in the quality of sessions: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you asked a teacher what her most significant problem in online teaching is, she would hands-down say engagement.

The performance leaderboard will precisely excite the participant so much so that they participate.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Concluding thoughts<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To summarize, engagement is an essential part of online meetings on Zoom. Engagement promotes active learning, and retention doubles the conversion rates for edtech startups and improves the overall quality of sessions. Performance leaderboards work according to an engagement rubric and help hosts view real-time analytics of participant talk-time and attentiveness, create custom quizzes, push nudge notifications for participants to speak, etc. All this can add to gamifying the experience in the Zoom meetings for participants, making learning fun! Performance leaderboards can revolutionize the way your online sessions work.
