About this webinar

Most of us have been training online for the last couple of years – some even longer. But as the world becomes accustomed to ‘Zoom calls’ and ‘MS Teams’ does this automatically mean best-practice principles of online orientation and engagement are being applied in our delivery of online training and assessment?

Care must be taken from the get-go to ensure no student is left behind. This session shows how to do it!

Explore:

  • Ways to orient students to the online environment - even when you're not there  

  • What 'presence' is and why it's important  

  • Impact of digital skills/literacy levels on students' ability to navigate online systems - and how you can help

  • Simple techniques you can use to support student confidence online


Key topics covered within webinar

  • Orienting students to the online environment
  • The importance of ‘presence’
  • Digital skills/literacy levels for navigation
  • Techniques to support student confidence online
