Centra – Staying in Touch with your Students

Centra is a web conferencing learning management system that provides a virtual classroom using live and recorded sessions. It provides voice and video communication with your students in a structured online learning environment replicating a traditional classroom. AO offers a  training course that is not only designed to help you effectively use the tools available in Centra, but also to help show you how to best integrate Centra in your course. You will learn how to use the whiteboard, load media & presentations, share web sites & applications as well as survey your students with the click of a mouse. They will discuss best practices for controlling the flow of discussion in the Centra environment as well as how best to implement Centra for your unique needs.  Go to One Stop and sign up for one of their classes or contact OET and we will be glad to set up a class here at CAHS.

  1. Had a great demonstration session in my office last week, faculty who participated were able to view from the leader’s screen as well as being active participants. Will be setting up more sessions in the near future if anyone else is interested.

  2. Can we learn Centra from the CAHS OET? I never seem to be able to make it to the trainings due to scheduling conflicts. Thanks! KTC
