Virtual Session Tips for Presenters

Some "day of" tips that might help:

• At the beginning, welcome both the face-to-face and virtual audiences.
• Explain to those in the face-to-face audience that the session is being broadcast live to virtual attendees.
• Use the mouse (or words), not the laser pointer, for emphasis in your session. The virtual audience cannot see the laser pointer.
• Speak clearly and be sure to use the microphone.
• Keep movement to a minimum.
• Be aware of any feedback or requests from the recording technician.
• Be sure to repeat questions or comments so streaming audiences and recordings can capture it.
• Include commentary from the remote audience when debriefing discussion questions. Your virtual moderator can assist with this.
  
• Share your email address in case there are questions from the virtual audience that weren’t covered during the session or they’d like to ask a direct question. They don’t have the opportunity to catch you in the hallways to follow up like people on-site do.
• Thank both the face-to-face and virtual audiences for participating.
