02/05/23eTwinning template 33
www.etwinning.net
Engage your audience before, during and after (use a #, ask your presentation with a picture and ask them what they see, upload material in the files archive). Make sure the event is interactive, use polls, tools, ask for their feedback
02/05/23eTwinning template 34
www.etwinning.net
Create visually appealing slides that relate to your webinar, try to stick to one color palette and include fascinating data and images that reflect your points.Use multiple types of media, when this is possible
02/05/23eTwinning template 35
www.etwinning.net
The average attention span of a typical audience is about 10 minutes. Webinar audiences are worse; you are competing for their attention with their computer screens, their always open social media accounts, and their email inboxes. Limit the text in your slides, get your audience involved with an interesting mix of interactive questions, mini challenges and tasks, rich images, compelling videos, and even music.

No matter how prepared you are, always remember that there are things that are out of your hands and may go wrong, don’t worry, it has happened to all!
