We have a lot of years of supporting distance/off campus learners under our belts using Blackboard Collaborate and currently Adobe Connect.  Happy to input our experience!

Best wishes,

Ok, so I have an idea brewing…

 

I know colleagues at Leeds have done webinars as have we at Beckett. In fact, we both presented at ALDinHE 2017 in Hull as well as at the regional symposium here at Beckett last year. I think Hull have as well – presented this year in Leicester?

 

Why don’t we arrange a virtual symposium (i.e. webinar) on webinars? Where we can share experiences, evaluate platforms and swap top tips?

 

Would that be feasible? I don’t mind hosting it (we use Adobe Connect here at Beckett). How about interested parties respond to me with suggestions of dates, structure and content and we’ll take it from there…

Hello Sandie,

 

We are also looking to trial webinars and I too, would be interested to hear responses to your query. I would be particularly interested in free webinar software out there – we are currently experimenting with Google Hangouts. If you are happy to share any responses you receive, I, and no doubt many on this list, would be very grateful!

 

Best wishes,

 

 

 

Hello all

 

We’re wanting to make use of webinars as part of our workshop support for students for library and skills support.  If any of you are already doing this/have tried this, any tips and practice you’d be happy to share? 

 

Thanks all, Sandie
