| Date: | 21-Sep-15 to 19-Oct-15 |
| Location: | Online / United Kingdom |
| Category: | Education |
Background
Are you interested in reaching new and different learners or giving them a way to learn outside the classroom?
Do you face challenges in delivering training to volunteers or staff because they are part-time or work remotely?
Do you want to find out new ways to deliver all kinds of learning in an effective, engaging, and low-carbon efficient way?
This course provides the opportunity to experience and learn online delivery of courses in a "virtual classroom".
Virtual and Face-To-Face classroom delivery requires very different presenter skills, so this course allows you to develop confidence in a supportive environment, enabling you to deliver your own sessions.
How the course works and what time is needed to take part.
This 5 week course will be run through the web conferencing software AdobeConnect (http://www.adobeconnect.com).
Time Commitment
The group sessions will be 1 hour but you will be set a short task each week.
On week 4 you will be delivering a micro session to a peer and you will need to allow time to plan for this between week 3 and 4.
Session Timings
The sessions will take place on Mondays 15:00 – 16:00 from September 21st – 19th October 2015.
All sessions will be recorded to allow anyone unable to attend a particular session to have access to it.
Course Outline
Session 1: Introduction to Virtual Classrooms
Session 2: Tools and Pedagogy
Session 3: Design and Delivery
Session 4: Deliver a micro Session
Session 5: Evaluation!
