From yawn to yay! – 14/05, 20/05, 26/05

It can be hard work and very tiring taking part in live online sessions for hours at a time, day after day, without a break. We need our webinars, classes and meetings to be as effective, engaging and enjoyable as possible.

This session explores the basic principles of live online delivery advocated by the Learning and Performance Institute and Lightbulb Moment. It’s all about frequent interaction using tools like chat, mics, icons, polls and whiteboards.

Jisc have been using these tools and techniques for some time and with excellent feedback after our sessions. Whether it’s a training workshop, a webinar-style seminar or a meeting with colleagues, we can be sure that our participants have enjoyed the experience!

What will be covered:

  • Exploring your platform – find out what functions you have available
  • Making your participants comfortable – give them the ground rules and show them how to take part
  • Tools and techniques – frequent interaction makes for active participants
  • Following up – the live session or meeting is not the end of the story

Unfortunately the May dates for these sessions are now fully booked, Jisc will be releasing dates for June week beginning 11/05.

These sessions are free for Teesside University staff, for more information and how to book: https://www.jisc.ac.uk/training/webinars-online-classes-and-meetings-from-yawn-to-yay
