Increasingly, companies are relying on virtual classroom technologies to deliver presentations and train staff. All too often however, presenters are transporting their live presentations into the synchronous environment without adjusting for the technology. The outcome is "Death by PowerPoint" sessions and attendees who are either asleep or multitasking. Either way, the potential ROI of synchronous e-learning is lost. This class will teach you how to apply evidence-based presentation and instructional methods that take best advantage of the features of virtual classroom software.

Public sessions of this new class will be delivered via the Elluminate virtual classroom tool. However, the skills you will learn will apply to any of the major virtual classroom tools that include a whiteboard, audio capability, and interaction facilities such as polling, chat, and small group breakout rooms.
