EnVisioning Virtually

VIRTUAL LEARNING IS HERE TO STAY!

Learn how to convert or create effective and engaging courses in a virtual environment and practice facilitating during the workshop series.

JOIN US every other week for 5 (or 6) sessions in this safe virtual setting to learn, practice, and receive feedback from instructors and a small community of like-minded peers

PARTICIPATE ACTIVELY in a series of 1½-hour sessions and deepen your skills by completing the assignments

LEAVE WITH practical tools, guides, and templates to jumpstart your course development

This series is for you if you are:

  • An instructional designer converting or creating courses in a virtual environment
  • A trainer or facilitator seeking to build and practice your virtual facilitation skills

By the end of the series, you will be able to:

  • Identify significant differences and leverage similarities in designing and delivering onsite vs virtual classes
  • Create activities that engage learners in the Zoom virtual environment (NOTE: while we will use Zoom, many tools have similar functionality)
  • Document detailed activity notes in a Facilitator Guide
  • Facilitate or “produce” at least one activity and receive feedback
  • Critique your set design and lighting and create an action plan to make improvements
