Tech trouble. Disgruntled students. Breakout room mishaps. Microaggressions. Airtime hogs. In this two-hour course, we’ll explore how to handle the bumps and problems that can arise during an online training. We’ll look at how to avert or avoid some of them. And we’ll talk about what to do if something goes wrong. This webinar will be facilitated by Rivera Sun, and designed to be highly participatory. Bring your questions! Come with examples! Be ready to share your ideas and approaches to troubleshooting. Our time together will be compassionate and anchored in non-judgment. A sense of humor and perhaps even some laughter will guide us through accepting our humanness, looking at “mistakes,” and creatively finding alternatives for moving forward. This webinar is useful for experienced and new facilitators, alike. (It may also be useful for folks who are running meetings online.)
You will learn:
Skills for handling challenging participants
Nonviolent approaches to dealing with conflict
Ways to address problems among participants
Simple tricks for dealing with tech trouble
And more . . .
