Module 8: From Room To Zoom

When you're ready to take your workshop online, the fundamentals don't disappear, they just shift. In this final bonus lesson, I walk through how I adapt workshops for a virtual setting by revisiting the core questions: why, what, who, when, where, and how. 

From choosing materials that work for home kits to deciding between live and asynchronous teaching, each element requires fresh consideration. You might lose the shared physical space, but you gain accessibility and the chance to reach people who might not have been able to attend otherwise. 

“For in-person meetings, the architecture helps us arrive: we walk through (or linger in) a doorway, take a seat… Online, there is no doorway. We have to create one.  Our deepest job as a virtual host isn’t managing the logistics, it’s temporary world creation."
