Overall Satisfaction with Webex Events
I am currently in an online certification course that uses Webex as their media for facilitation. I am currently the only one in this office using Webex.
- Training
- Webex is great for interaction with your users/learners. You can have them add to the screen (arrows, text, shapes, etc..) or you can have them add an emoticon of your choice, or type in the chatbox! There are so many options.
- The breakout sessions are very useful. It allows you to break your learners into teams and allow them to have their own screen and chat ability between just those few individuals, for a predetermined amount of time.
- Once you end your breakout session, you can display all of the different groups work to the entire class. Whatever was done within the breakout session can now continue all together as one. It's great for review and discussion.
- You are unable to MUTE yourself in a breakout session like you can in the default room.
- The collapsible sidebars could be formatted better. You basically can see either the participants, chatbox, or polling section one at a time, but not all at once, which can be inconvenient at times.
- This is not my area of expertise.
Webex serves as more of a live interaction, while Lessonly is for individual, self-lead learning. Webex allows you to see and respond in real-time. Lessonly is able to show you a recording, and you can review that response once the Lesson is complete. They're very different systems, both great in their own way and used for different purposes.
