Webinars: Past, Present and Future

Here are links to webinars past, present and future...not quite a Christmas Carol but...

Past:
Here is a link to the presentation I gave last week titled "Reaching and Teaching Across Generations"

Screen shot from early in the presentation, the discussion was already lively.

Description of the webinar:Today's classrooms can containing up to four different generations of students - each generation having unique motivators, learning styles, and technology preferences. Examine generational differences, as well as pedagogical strategies and techniques to best engage your entire classroom.

It was a lively discussion with good input from the attendees. I hope they had as much fun in the webinar as I did presenting and interacting with them.

Future:
On Tuesday January 19, 2010 as part of the eLearning Guild's Thought Leader Series I will be co-presenting with Tony O'Driscoll in a webinar titled Learning in 3D: Adding a New Dimension to Enterprise Learning and Collaboration at 10:30 AM PST.

Here is a description of the webinar:

Virtual Immersive Environments (VIEs) are gaining attention but are they effective or a fad? Unfortunately, there are few guidelines to inform the development and creation of effective 3D Learning Events. In this session, we will examine a model for effectively thinking about and deploying 3D learning and collaboration spaces within your organization, explore how different design principles and learning archetypes lead to success and analyze case studies of organizations that have successfully combined formal and informal learning within these virtual spaces. This session provides educators, corporate trainers and others with valuable information on how 3D worlds foster and promote informal and formal learning and collaboration within and across organizations

This presentation is based on the publication of the new book "Learning in 3D" due out in January 2010.



You must be a member of the Guild to register, but, if you are not a member, you should become one. Here is the information you need to register.


Also,I will be appearing "in person" at the MPICT Winter Conference where I will be presenting a keynote address titled Leveraging Virtual Worlds, Web 2.0 and Smartphones for Educational Excellence.

I will also be appearing "in person" at ASTD TechKnowledge in Las Vegas on Friday, January 29th from Friday, 10:00AM-11:30AM

Please if you attend one of these events, stop by and say "hi" virtually or even in person if it is a live event. I love to meet people and say hello.
