Download the PowerPoint presentation, facilitator notes, common questions, staff factsheet, audio transcript and remote delivery guide (whichever guide is right for you)
Work through the facilitator notes first. They tell you everything you need to know to prepare and deliver the PowerPoint presentation effectively. You’ll need the facilitator notes to hand when presenting - if you’re training remotely, print them out or have them open on a separate device so you can refer to them easily while presenting your main screen
Use our remote delivery guide to get everything set up as you need it if you're delivering the session via Microsoft Teams (part of Office 365 Education) or Google Classroom and Google Meet (part of G Suite for Education). You’ll learn how to make the tech work for you and facilitate remote collaboration with confidence
