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 don’t 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.

1. 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.

2. 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.
3. 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.

4. 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 don’t get bored and lose their interest in what is being taught.
5. 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.

6. Conduct a dry run of the virtual class

Before launching the virtual classrooms, never forget to test it first in a real and authentic setting. This will save you from
making any mistake after the launch. Conduct a mock session where everyone can log in to the portal and experience it before
hand.
Following these steps can increase the efficacy of the virtual classroom and improve the knowledge and polish the skill set of the
participants to a great extent.
