Developing Online Training about IVC

I am getting ready to develop some online training about video conferencing for educators. I've noticed that participation in live trainings has been steadily decreasing during this school year. We cancelled several of the classes planned for this year.

I know that I will develop an Intro to Video Conferencing class, but I'm still trying to decide topics for other online classes. My goal is to develop 3 classes and have them ready to roll out at the beginning of the next school year (less than 3 months away!)

Do you have suggestions? Where should I focus my time, so I can concentrate on classes people want most?

VC Etiquette: Multi-site Muting

Tip: If you are in a multi-site video conference, you should keep your site muted unless you are presenting to the whole group. This will reduce distractions and help the other sites focus on the site that is presenting.

Have you done video conferencing before?

If you haven't, ask for help! Find someone who will do an introduction to video conferencing for you and your class by video conference. This will give you a chance to play with the equipment before connecting with a content provider or with a collaborative IVC partner.

If you need assistance, let us know! We do a video conference intro session for students and teachers.
