With over 20 years in the online training business, Jennifer has been ahead of the game and has garnered so much experience which makes her a leader in this area. This episode of The Entrepreneurial You Podcast couldn’t be more relevant to the times we are now experiencing.
Here is a snippet of what Jennifer shared:
“I like three things, I want everybody to be able to write on the Whiteboard at the same time because there’s ways we can get introductions of 25 people done in 2 minutes. It makes it very effective, which is so important in the virtual world. We may only have 90 minutes or two hours together and everybody’s working at the same time, which can be very powerful.
I like to have a chat room where everybody can have a group chat that’s easy to use that allows everyone to have an equal voice. So you may decide to speak out loud or you may decide to type in chat. It eliminates accents. It can help people with for example English as a second language and it allows people to reflect. I also want easy to use breakout rooms. Break out rooms allow us to come together in one virtual space and with the click of a few buttons we can send learner’s into smaller groups where they can collaborate and create together. Those are the things I look for in technology.”
