There is quite a large chunk of professors who need the interaction with students and see their faces and reactions to be happy on the job. That was most apparent when covid shit hit the fan and the time after when they were all so incredibly happy to see students onsite again (and no longer recorded classes unfortunately).

I ended up being quite ok teaching over zoom, but I’m young(ish) and treat it like a streamer. Utilize chat, especially.
I’ll still admit that good professors read the room to stay engaging though; doing so without cameras, it’s more up to your imagination.
