237 — Designing virtual classrooms

This week on The Good Practice Podcast, we're following up on our recent virtual classroom facilitation episode with an in-depth look at design.

Jennifer Lindsay-Finan and Karen Vieth, both of InSync Training, share their experience and advice. We discuss:

• when virtual classrooms are most appropriate
• the team's process for planning virtual classrooms
• the biggest mistakes people make in virtual classroom design.
