Training Magazine Network offers a series of webinars that often touch on topics of interest to PSA. This webinar caught my attention as it discusses “webinar fatigue” and the use of the the “flipped classroom model” to present video content on demand and then follow up with a lively interactive Q&A discussion on a certain date using Google+Hangouts on air.
Of course, the presenter, Michael Kolowich, is selling his platform called KnowledgeVision, a platform for creating interactive video assets from Power Point Presentations.
I was pleasantly surprised to find immediate access to the “on demand” video webinar content here without registering for the webinar through Training Magazine Network.
The link to the lively interactive discussion on November 18th is als0 included with the webinar content. The discussion will be held on Google +Hangouts on air as an experiment in using a free webinar tool broadcast over YouTube. The presenter encourages questions sent before hand using the question box on the webinar content page.
Hmmm. Nov.18 we’ll be having our PSA meeting starting at 10:30am…and then the Webinar Q&A starts at 11am MST. So, perhaps we can “tune in” at that time from our PSA learning lab and see what it’s like “live”. Maybe ask a question or make a comment.
I have no experience so far with Google+ Hangouts, so that will be interesting to try out too.
Also, watching this knowledgvision thingy, one of the things going on is a “split screen”, where he’s talking to us from his office on the left side, and on the right side are a series of graphics, and they bring each side to the forefront a little bit from time to time.
One of our PSA techniques for the What is Learning Today video will also be split screen, where one screen comments on the other at the same time. In our case, we’ll use more than one speaker at a time, like a split screen video conference, but we can also use a split screen to insert “presentation” along with the talking head.
Did you look at the presentation? The presenter explains the process he is using and why he is using it. Of course, I think his platform makes it possible.
The presenter is asking for questions before the Q&A. Check out his presentation. Would be a good experiment on the 18th to see how Google+Hangouts on Air works.
Confess the first time I only watched the first few minutes. Will remedy that, and “study” the whole thing….
