  Case: Virtual Learning & Inappropriate Behavior
The teacher is required to teach both in-person students and virtual students at the same time. Students online are required to keep their mic OFF (unless asking a question or responding to a question) and cameras OFF at all times. One Virtual student decided to keep their Mic ON while going to the bathroom. Disrupting the class with the noises of them using the bathroom. They also decided to say "Sorry, you have to hear me pee, I couldn't hold it anymore". The following week the student used offensive language to answer a question. Both times the teacher kicked the student out of the virtual classroom.

Was this the right solution? How does a teacher handle these new behavior issues that come with virtual learning?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I feel that for inappropriate language or a violation of school rules should merit the teacher to kick the student out of the teams meeting. But leaving the mic on the teacher can easily mute that student and ask them to virtually raise their hand to speak when needed.
