How do we reduce distractions, isolation, and screen fatigue in our virtual classrooms? How do we maximize participation and teamwork?
VILT can leverage multiple modalities to engage learners and transfer knowledge. However, new users and introverts might find it intimidating. Activities can go haywire for both participants and the facilitator.
Despite challenges, opportunities do abound. Getting learners from different locations and time zones to learn together is economical and scalable. Groups can be sustained even after the session for long-term interaction and support. So, the question is – how do we leverage the challenges and opportunities with VILT, for corporate training?
