Helpful for teacher workshops
Rating: 5 out of 10
IncentivizedUse Cases and Deployment Scope
This has been used to connect individual teachers and teaching teams with consultants and workshop trainers for professional development. It’s been helpful to address the issue of working in a rural environment that has a lack of in-house resources. GoToRoom allows us to work with other schools or professional development leaders to provide training in non-urban settings.
Pros
- Video conferencing is clear and precise
- Scheduling is emailed and easy to access.
- The ease of getting used to the program is quick for all of our teachers.
Cons
- Learning how to work through multiple documents or presentations in a call can be tricky.
- Our rural setting does not allow for consistent internet connection, video is not always clear.
- Audio can be limited to a large room setting in workshops.
Likelihood to Recommend
It works really well in a one on one settings when teachers are coordinating with individual trainers or workshops. It can be helpful as well during a team setting Q&A for follow up training. However, it is a struggle to use in large group settings when one presenter is speaking to a large group of people for trainings.
