  1. Video Conference Teaching Techniques Bob Woodruff

  2. What is the secret for success in Video Conference Teaching

  3. Success is between your ears

  4. Think outside the room • Those people are HERE! • CHART YOUR INTERACTION • Determine - There is no back row in my class regardless of the mode of teaching • This requires charting to remove blind spots • This requires your mentality being in every location • This requires “forced interaction” • It is all between your ears

  5. 2. Success is in your eyes

  6. Look at the participant • IF in the classroom – look at them • IF on camera – look at the camera • Projection to a second site where teacher and students can see as well • Screen in the front as well

  7. 3. Success is in your speaking • Don’t yell when speaking to people on the other site. • Nod or give other visual affirmation rather than verbal to prevent lag. • Encourage some interaction (even in jest) between sites. • Be aware of Vocal variety

  8. 4. Success is in your Appearance • Don’t wear extremely bright colours or patterns. They look strange over video conference technology and can distract – especially during movement.

  9. Further Appearance • Tend not to set below the camera • Tend to move around more deliberately and slowly to let the camera track you • Do move though and act natural – don’t just stand behind a podium in any kind of teaching situations.

  10. 5. Success is in Getting and Keeping all Participants engaged • Don’t start until all are “in the room.” • Acknowledge each person on each site • Don’t let anyone “leave the room.” • Rotate questions between rooms and among all individuals • Stop for some kindling type of activity. • Record who has been “in the room.” • Let students know that this is a part of your expectation. • Assure both Psychosocial and Cognitive Presence. You can be there without being there.
