An online live class is a form of remote education that allows instructors to teach and interact with students in real-time. The class is conducted through an online platform such as Youtube, Skype or website integrated portals, that provides video and other communication tools that enable instructors and students to interact as if they were in a physical classroom.
While the article deals with 7 tips to make your LIVE class a success, first make sure that you fulfill the basic criteria before setting up a LIVE class.
Basic criteria to keep in mind before conducting a LIVE class
- Technical requirements: Make sure that you have the necessary equipment and technology to conduct the class, including a reliable internet connection, webcam, microphone, and any necessary software or platforms. Sites like LLT, can guide you regarding equipment needed for LIVE streaming your class.
- Class format and structure: Decide on the format and structure of the class, including the length of the class, the topics to be covered, and the teaching materials to be used.
- Engagement and participation: Consider ways to engage and involve students in the class, such as by using interactive tools, asking questions, and encouraging discussion.
- Classroom management: Have a plan in place for managing the classroom, including policies on attendance, participation, and behavior.
Now back to the topic at hand.
7 Tips to make LIVE class a success
A successful live class is one in which the instructor effectively engages and educates students in a way that achieves the intended learning outcomes. Here are some key elements that contribute to a successful live class:
- Clear communication: The instructor should clearly communicate the objectives and expectations of the class, as well as any guidelines for participation and behavior. See how to communicate clearly.
- Active engagement: The instructor should use interactive tools and methods to actively engage students, encourage participation, and create a dynamic and collaborative learning environment.
- Effective delivery: The instructor should deliver the content in an organized, engaging, and effective manner that helps students understand the material and retain the information. See tips on how to make an effective presentation.
- Feedback and assessment: The instructor should provide feedback to students on their performance, evaluate their understanding of the material, and adjust the class as needed to ensure that learning outcomes are met.
- Technical support: Have technical support available to help students who may be experiencing technical difficulties during the class. Forums like Reddit, have ‘threads’ that can guide you regarding trouble shooting technical problems.
- Accessibility: The instructor should ensure that the class is accessible to all students, including those with disabilities, by providing accommodations and using accessible tools and materials.
- Time management: The instructor should manage the time effectively, ensuring that all topics are covered, and that there is time for discussion, questions, and feedback.
Overall, a successful live class requires a combination of effective communication, engagement, delivery, feedback, technical support, accessibility, and time management.
