Event Description
Webinar technology like Adobe Connect, WebEx and GoToMeeting offer development practitioners new platforms to hold meetings for project teams, working groups and communities of practice, but it can be a struggle to keep participants engaged throughout the meeting.
Join CORE Group and the Knowledge Management Task Force of the TOPS FSN Network for a one-hour workshop that will walk you through some participatory activities for facilitating virtual meetings. Web meetings, for the purposes of this meeting, differ from webinars in their size (of around 8 to 20 participants) and with a greater emphasis on interaction and dialogue among all participants rather than one-way presentation. While many of the lessons covered can be applied across platforms, this event will emphasize some specific features of the Adobe Connect.
