Blindside Networks: “Building the World’s Most Effective Virtual Classroom with BigBlueButton”

MootUS 23:  Give us a brief description of what we can look forward to?

Blindside Networks: The goal of BigBlueButton is to build the world’s most effective virtual classroom, one that maximizes time for applied learning and feedback. This workshop will dive into teaching and learning theory and invite participants to collaborate on how best to incorporate this theory into a virtual class.

MootUS 23:  Why have you chosen to present this topic?

Blindside Networks: We believe the world is moving away from video-centric to a pedagogic-centric virtual classroom. An effective virtual classroom is based on methodology (not technology) and in this workshop we will share the methodology that guides the development of BigBlueButton.

MootUS 23:  Share with us one tool or technique you or your client has implemented while using Moodle which has benefited them and their organization!
