How to be successful delivering live online instruction.

A couple of resources for you if you are doing Webinars or other synchronous delivery.

First, The eLearning Guild published its free (you don't even have to give them your email address to get it) eBook, 843 Tips for Successful Online Instruction last December. Tips from 336 actual practitioners, no vendor promotion, and no strings attached. Discussion was not restricted to any single online conferencing tool, and most comments are purely generic and vendor-neutral.

Second, there is this article, based on experience with only one online conferencing tool (Elluminate Live). Best practices in synchronous conferencing moderation - Lynn Anderson, et al, IRRODL. Practical guidelines for the use of online synchronous conferencing software provided by session administrators and moderators. Linked from [Online Learning Update]
