5 'Time Wasters' or Gap Fillers for Presenters


Sometimes you need, um, how do I put this, a 'pause' between content in a demonstration or presentation. Also, most audiences get bored while waiting for you to set up your audio/visuals and the rest.


Here are 5 things you can do for your audience to fill the gaps between the real stuff, and keep them engaged.

  1. Take a Poll with their mobile phones
  2. Visualize Tweets Live!
  3. Slide show of Meme's

Big VET e's 2009


Cathy Moore who's hosts my fave blog of very-good elearning examples from around the world, was the keynote speaker at this years BigVETe's conference in Brisbane.

The 2 Day Conference held at the end of each year by the Federal Department, The Flexible Learning Framework, proved yet again to be a valuable time of networking with VET and elearning professionals and to discover new tools, practices and funding opportunities for developing and embedding elearning in your teaching programs.

neovet and V2Training demonstrated how new media can be embedded in wiki's, google waves, LMS's and other websites, not without it's problems as I'm sure you've experienced!. To find out about future funding and conferences, keep an eye here at neovet and at the Flexible Framework website.
