Level I Certification Program
CSTP 203
Leading Effective Live Online Events

Workshop Description: In this four-part live online workshop -- taking place over a two week period -- participants learn and practice effective, practical and creative strategies and techniques for the live online environment. Concrete approaches for synchronous facilitation abound, as do ideas for the design of real-time activities that take learning and collaborating online to a whole new level
. In addition to basic instructional design skills CSTP 203 will explore:

  • Effective live event moderation and facilitation
  • Fostering interactivity
  • Activity and content design
  • Game-based activities, live online
  • Exceptional use of virtual whiteboards
  • Shared web browsing
  • Creating interactive exercises
  • Application sharing
  • Audio and video options
  • Ensuring learning and meeting objectives are met

Duration:
This workshop takes place over a 2-week period, and includes 4 live instructional webcasts of 75-90 minutes each.

Facilitator:
This workshop will be led by industry pioneer Jonathan Finkelstein, founder of the CSTP program, executive producer of LearningTimes, and author of Learning in Real Time (Wiley / Jossey-Bass). Few people have spent more time in real-time online learning environments facilitating and working with others to create effective learning experiences worthy of the live online medium. Jonathan is also host of the Real Time Minute, a regular online program about synchronous collaboration and learning. The son of two New York City public school teachers, Jonathan graduated with honors from Harvard University.
