“…Diverse research studies have used the UX approach to assess students’ perceptions in educational contexts, such as [ 15 , 19 , 93 , 94 , 95 ]. In this research work to conduct the UX assessment through a qualitative approach, the pocket BLA tool was used to collect the students’ feedback on the use of cameras when videoconferencing, as carried out in other research studies in the educational field [ 15 , 19 , 96 ]. There are two modalities of BLA: (1) administering the instrument by a face-to-face interview, which is known as a BLA tool; (2) conducting a written survey, named the pocket BLA tool.…”

This research examines the form in which undergraduates use video cameras during videoconferencing class sessions in a Smart Classroom context and, more specifically, the reasons why a considerable number of students opt to turn off their cameras when videoconferencing during the sessions while others keep them on. The study was carried out in an institution that had previously switched from face-to-face teaching to an Emergency Remote Teaching solution, initially adopted in 2019–2020 to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions. Findings suggest that using cameras when videoconferencing is associated with increasing and enhancing the interaction between the student and the rest of the class, although not all students agreed with this conclusion. In addition, having the video cameras switched fomented socialization and improved the overall online learning experience for students. However, the surveyed students pointed out diverse negative elements, such as why they had to turn on their personal cameras, privacy concerns, and limitations derived from the available technology infrastructure, in addition to other factors such as distractions, anxiety, and cognitive load. This work discusses how these elements can influence the well-being and the user experience of the students, both positively and negatively.

“…This research is focused on analyzing the participants' perceptions on a hybrid virtual format. Through a pocket BLA tool, students' and instructors’ salient opinions about the format were collected to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the hybrid virtual format, as carried out in other research works focused on education [ 11 , 33 , 57 , 82 ]. First, a discussion about the findings derived from the pocket BLA is carried out.…”

“…Several research studies to assess and adjust practices carried out in diverse educational settings have taken advantage of the UX approach, collecting opinions from students or instructors through specific UX tools [ 11 , 57 , [79] , [80] , [81] ]. The BLA tool can be used to collect user perceptions once they have experienced a product or a service, and in this case it has been used to gather student's feedback about different educational experiences [ 11 , 33 , 57 , 82 ].…”
