Here are your results:

• The Sleeper: 10 – 15 points 

During a call, you are usually sleeping. Many times your teachers will have to wake you up or you can get away with it by hiding under a blanket. You don’t like attending zoom calls, but when you do you wonder why you attended in the first place. You’re likely to be late to class or not present at all because you slept in late. Maybe try going to bed early next time. 

• The Disengaged Student: 16 – 29 points 

During a call, you are usually distracted. You’re the student who has a black profile screen because you don’t want anyone to know you’re not paying attention. You are likely scrolling through social media or working on other activities because you’re definitely not paying attention to what your teacher is saying. You join zoon when you have to, and when you do, you are only there to be counted as present. 

• The Distractor/The Pet Lover: 30 – 35 points

During a call, if you are a pet lover then you never miss a chance to show off your pets. You always get complimented on your cute bundles of joy, and you’re likely getting hit in the face with a tail while trying to talk to your teacher. You may be late for your zoom call because you spent a countless number of minutes trying to groom your pet to look perfect for the zoom. You mute your microphone so that your pet’s barking doesn’t disrupt the class. However, if you have gotten this number of points and don’t have pets then you are likely distracting but not enough to be a disruption. You cause attention to yourself on accident, and you are likely to have that one parent that is talking to you while on zoom. You may forget to mute your microphone sometimes, and it’s possible that you are late to class for a varied number of reasons, but either way, you are late a lot. 

• The Disruptor: 35 – 42 points

In school, you were most likely the class clown, and that didn’t change when zoom meetings started. You’re probably the obnoxious student that plays rap or hip hop music in the background, and your teacher has to remind you to turn off your microphone 50% of the time. You love making people in the zoom chat laugh, and you might even show off your dance moves to the class.  You most likely show up to zoom for entertainment or to socialize and you usually like to join the zoom calls 20 minutes in. 

• The Immersed student/Teacher’s Pet: 42 – 50 points

During a call, you are very engaged. You never miss what the teacher is saying, and you are likely the first to unmute your microphone to answer the teacher’s question. You are always on time or at least five minutes early, and you usually join zoom calls for help or to review material if not learning more. You never leave in the middle of a zoom, and when you do leave you most likely thank your teacher and say goodbye.
