The synchronous classroom provides us with a unique opportunity to design exercises that can simultaneously appeal to multiple learning styles while involving adult learners in a respectful and meaningful way. In the synchronous classroom, using a combination of collaborative tools to support well-designed content can create learning interventions that can surpass the effectiveness of activities delivered in a traditional setting. Using a series of sample designs, this Chief Learning Officer magazine Webinar, sponsored by WebEx, will demonstrate how to create rich and engaging programs designed to make your learners successful. In this session, you will learn techniques that allow you to determine when to utilize serial and concurrent engagement approaches; design collaborative synchronous exercises that apply to auditory, visual and kinesthetic learners; and apply the fundamentals Adult Learning Theory to engage your synchronous audience.

Jennifer Hofmann has worked in the learning field since 1997 and has experience using all of the major synchronous delivery platforms. For years, the synchronous training community has had an abundance of tools, but a dearth of best practices in facilitation and instructional design. Hofmann’s company closed this gap with the Certified Synchronous Training Professional (CSTP) curriculum. Hofmann is a recognized thought leader in the field of synchronous learning. Her latest project is the best-practices report “How to Design for the Live Online Classroom: Creating Great Interactive and Collaborative Training Using Web Conferencing.” Additionally, she is the author of The Synchronous Trainer’s Survival Guide: Facilitating Successful Live and Online Courses, Meetings and Events and Live and Online! Tips, Techniques, and Ready-To-Use Activities for the Virtual Classroom, and the moderator of InSync Center, an online community of practice focused on fostering collaboration and knowledge sharing between synchronous and e-learning training professionals.
