Interact and Engage, 2nd Edition

"Creating outstanding online meetings, webinars, and training programs has always been challenging-for novice and experienced instructional designers and facilitators alike. As online meetings have been normalized for just about all purposes in recent years (sales calls, deal completion, project updates, team building, and more), virtual learning experts Kassy LaBorie and Tom Stone understood that the need to interact and engage is more important than ever. They recognized their unique position to provide resources and guidance to help people succeed in virtual trainings, webinars, and meetings. Updating their first edition of Interact and Engage!, in this new volume the authors offer more than 75 activities as well as tips and strategies to help you create engaging online learning and masterful meetings and webinars-ranging from welcomers and warmups to openers, icebreakers, and closers. LaBorie and Stone include advanced features and guide you on how to convert or create your own online activities. An appendix presents two capability models for the positions of virtual facilitator and producer. Think of Interact and Engage! as your favorite cookbook; wherever you flip there's a dish to turn a meal from good to great.
