Make Your Confer Session Run Itself According to Plan: Archived Desktop Seminar
with Blaine Morrow
Want your Confer sessions to run more smoothly? CCC Confer’s Plan lets you create a lesson plan in advance with all the transition and event elements included, all in the order you want. With this easy-to-use tool, you can preload quizzes, polls, multimedia files, handouts, and presentations – anything you plan to use with your students or audience – and save your plan to be reused as often as needed. Using Plan, you can focus on teaching or leading rather than fumbling with technology and trying to do these tasks “on the fly.” And that’s not all: Plans can be saved and shared with others, so your good planning can help someone else repeat your success (or vice versa). Come and learn the secrets of Confer Plan.
