Virtual Classrooms Effective

• How To Make Virtual Classrooms Effective?
• A virtual classroom is a digital learning setting
  where participants can view, learn, and interact
  by utilizing resources online. Unlike
  traditional classrooms, virtual classrooms dont
  adopt a typical classroom teaching method. While
  virtual classrooms may lack the personal touch
  of teachers, they compensate it with the new age
  technology. To maintain the effectiveness of
  virtual classrooms, you need to take some vital
  steps that have been listed below.
• Setting objectives
• To make the virtual classrooms effective, the
  first and the foremost step is to ascertain our
  goals and define our learning
• objectives. This will involve choosing the
  appropriate learning materials and methods which
  will assist in the successful virtual classroom
  training for students. Equally important is the
  knowledge of their skills and grasping power.
• Choose the perfect delivery technique
• After determining the aim, you need to understand
  the method of providing the content for virtual
  classrooms i.e. How you will
• deliver. To get a clear picture of this you will
  have to know the audience/students who would be
  accessing it. If they are working professionals,
  then they will not be able to learn during their
  office hours. Once you figure this out, selecting
  the best learning for virtual classroom will
  become easier. As it is, online education in
  India has bright future prospects that need to be
  tapped to the fullest.
• Include more visuals to foster better
  understanding
• To gain maximum participation and engagement,
  pictures need to be well complemented with the
  written text. Visuals tend to catch the
  attention quickly and easily and have a greater
  impact on the audience. Students can even
  comprehend difficult topics when visuals are
  paired with detailed explanations.
• Encourage active participation of the students
• The success of a virtual classroom is directly
  proportional to its students participation. This
  involves clearing common myths about online
  learning. In order to engage the students,
  classes need to be interactive. They should not
  be more than 1 hour and
• must comprise sufficient number of breaks.
  Including games that are interesting and will
  make learning fun will prove beneficial. This
  will also ensure that students dont get bored
  and lose their interest in what is being taught.
• Prepare a guideline for teachers
• Teachers must be well aware of what role they
  will play and what all factors they need to
  consider while teaching. Here, the
  specifications will come handy for the
  instructors/teachers on how they should be
  conducting the virtual classes. Details like time
  and duration of classes, the type of activities
  to be incorporated and the objective of each
  class need to be given to them.
