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
