Mike had been working in a training division for a couple of years. He had just started updating his slides for the next edition of the course he delivers every year in spring, when Andy, his manager, dropped in to his office and said:"The conference was just great! So many fantastic presentations. You should have seen how folks overseas organize training events. Why don't we also schedule a series of webinars this year?"
Could you easily put yourself in Mike's shoes? Have your manager come to you already with a similar question? Maybe you are a manager tempted to try online solution? Many of us participated or at least heard about webinars, online weather briefings or online event weeks. Where would you start when planning a real-time online activity? You think, fine, I need a presenter and a tool! Is that all you should think of? In this session we will try to collect all the items for the webinar preparatory and post event checklist. This list will help everyone to remember important steps in the process like...the audience. Yes! We need a presenter, a tool, an audience and...Let's explore and map the other pieces in the Webin@r Checklist session.

Hello my name is Anna
In this session, we will define together the first blocks needed to deliver a successful Webinar. Webinars are becoming more and more popular as they are a very good tool to reach out to a wide audience.
Have a look at the short video and help Anna to focus on what needs to be done.

Anna has suggested to use a mind map. The link will take to a padlet where you can upload your own mind map (you could scan a diagram and upload the file, or use a word document, or take a photo of your diagram)

This is a useful link to a free web application to create mind maps

Hello :) This is Lu with you today!
Yesterday Anna guided us to reflect on the needs, goals and audience when planning webinars.
Today I invite you to climb another step on the organising of webinars and think about the details that need to be addressed when “setting up the webinar session”. This step will involve more logistic aspects than yesterday.
Please, have a look at the short video 2 (link above) for further guidance on aspects you may want to reflect upon.
-
Activity 2: Build a mind map considering the most important aspects to plan for when “setting up the webinar session”.
Similarly to yesterday, reflect on the main aspects related to this step of the webinar organisation and present them in the form of a mind map. You can build your mind map using pen on paper, or any software of your preference (see a free software suggestion in Reference 1).

Please use the link above to share your mind map in the padlet dedicated to “Webin@r Checklist - Step 2”.

Good day (3) dear Calmeters!
Today we are focusing on the production of materials for Webinar. There are some similarities but also some differences between online and conventional presentation. Pros and cons are on the both sides - in this session try to think of them. Try to imagine how is it to sit in front of a screen and at the same time 'in front' of 10, 50 or even 100+ pupils that are following each of your moves and words... What are your thoughts..?
- start mindmapping!
Video that is linked above might give you some clues.
Happy to see your ideas!
-
Activity 3: Build a mind map of everything that comes to your mind when you hear 'materials for online presentation'
Procedure is the same as for the whole week up until now - build your mind map using pen or paper, white board or any software of your choice (you can find suggested one above, under DAY 1 -> 'Resource 1').

Please use the link above to share your mind map in the so-called 'Padlet' dedicated to “Webin@r Checklist - Step 3”.

Hi my name is Maja...
And the time for action is NOW! I would like to brainstorm together about Step 4 of the Webin@r Checklist: how to successfully run a webinar. Content is there. Presenter is there. Some audience is there. Not much though? I thought more people registered. But everything is set, so it will go OK, right?
Video that is linked above might give you some clues or confusion.:)
Then let’s go and draw something! Post your ideas on the paddlet number 4.

Hello! My name is Alessandro... and let me say I find it great to share ideas and good practises with you! We are definetly making our motto "Diverse in Cultures, United in Learning" concrete: this is kind of magic!
So, where are we? Ah, yes... The webinar was run successfully, thanks to a great deal of planning and preparation. However, our efforts at this stage might experience a downhill... like if we were already done. But... Do you agree that we can't just stop like that? What comes after running a webinar? Is there room to improve what we just did: how to get some clues? Did we meet our goals? And what about those who could not make it to attend the event? And yes... Mike's boss is of course interested in statistics and results... Fyi, always the same these bosses ;-).
Have a look at the short video and help Mike focus on what actions shall be taken after running a webinar, in order to get the most out of this online event.

Taking stock of last week activities: Let's build a checklist together!
-
This week we will be trying to build a checklist together. We have set up a padlet to share our ideas, starting from the mind map we have put together last week.
When you share your ideas, specify your name and for which stage you are providing the checklist, e.g. is it the beginning, or the end, a checklist for the technology, etc
Be creative!
