Given the broad reach of APCDA, we primarily use Webinars to stay in touch. But webinars seem designed to let one person speak, and the audience remain silent. How can we engage the audience in a Webinar? We will focus on using Zoom for Meetings and the options Zoom provides. Although Mentimeter and similar third-party tools are fun, they require a lot of extra time. We will focus on ways of getting the audience to participate without outside tools. This webinar will begin with the APCDA formula for interactive webinars (a discussion question and breakout rooms), then ask attendees to demonstrate other techniques. We hope to build a “Tool Kit” that we can publish for our members, to help you lead more interactive webinars. Let us know when you register if you want to share your favorite technique for inspiring interaction, or if you just want to listen. Let’s see how many creative ways we have found to make webinars more interactive.
