Course description

How to Moderate your Online Course is an excellent Masterclass for anyone who wants to learn the skills needed to be a great e-moderator. During the online course, you will become familiar with various aspects of e-moderation, such as online socialization, e-moderating techniques (for example summarizing and weaving), how to support novices and how to promote active participation. This course will provide you with an introduction to the field of e-moderation, teach you the basic e-moderating skills, and give you guidance on how to keep developing yourself as an e-moderator. In addition, this is a hands-on course, meaning that after a short introduction to the theory, you will directly get the chance to apply your knowledge. During this course, we will challenge you to rise to the occasion and step into the shoes of the e-moderator yourself.

Masterclass

As part of the Masterclass, we are offering live virtual workshops given by our educational experts. The educational experts of Elevate have over 1000+ hours of experience in e-moderation and can share their knowledge during this workshop. The virtual workshop will be given 4 times a year and you can sign up in the learning environment. The workshop will take around 2 or 3 hours.
