Let's face it, keeping your attendees engaged during an online training session can be a bit of a challenge, right? Especially when you're talking about something as detailed as Financial Institution Standard (FIS) Training on MS Teams. But here's the thing, audience engagement is super important. It doesn’t just keep people interested, it actually helps them learn and remember what they're being taught. So, if you want your FIS training to really hit the mark, engaging your audience isn’t just a 'nice to have,' it’s a must-have!
Use Magic Maps to Connect Attendees from Across the Globe
Ever kicked off an MS Teams session with the classic 'So, where is everyone joining us from?' Magic Maps takes this question to a whole new level. As soon as someone types their location in the chat during your FIS training, boom!—it's plotted on a real-time world map. This feature is not just about knowing where everyone is; it creates a moment of connection among your attendees. Try starting with questions like 'What financial hub city stands out to you?' or 'Is there a financial institution capital you'd love to visit?' It’s a great way to break the ice and get your participants involved right from the start.
Open the Floor for Opinions with Opinion Polls
Sometimes, your MS Teams live session needs a little more than a simple yes or no. That's where StreamAlive’s Opinion Polls come in. Ask open-ended questions like 'What's one regulation you think needs more clarity in today's financial sector?' This interaction not only welcomes a range of responses, but it also makes your training more dynamic. It’s a chance for attendees to share insights from their own experiences or studies, making the session more relatable and grounded in real-world application, which is key for FIS topics.
Power Polls to Gauge Understanding Instantly
Ever wondered if your audience is on the same page during an FIS training? Power Polls are perfect for quickly checking in. Drop in a poll question like 'Which area of auditing seems clearest?' and let your audience pick from options you've set up. Not only does this give you a snapshot of their understanding, but it also engages them actively in the learning process. It’s a win-win: instant feedback for you, interaction for them.
Rev Up Interaction with the Winner Wheel
Sometimes, all it takes to encourage interaction is the thrill of winning something. Enter the Winner Wheel, your go-to for upping engagement in your MS Teams training sessions. Tailor it to your session by rewarding contributions when discussing complex FIS topics or picking a random winner for answering tough questions. It’s not just about the prize, but the excitement it generates. Try using the wheel after each major segment of your training to keep energy levels high. 'Who will win the mystery prize for participating in our PMI discussions?' Let the wheel decide!
Spark Ideas with Wonder Words
Wonder Words can really liven up your financial discussions. Get your attendees to type in one-word thoughts on what comes to mind when they hear 'Financial Compliance' or 'Investment Risks,' and watch as a colorful word cloud forms in real-time. This visual tool is a great way to see perceptions and common threads among your audience, adding an engaging and creative layer to your session. Plus, it’s a lively way to break up the more intense parts of your training! Encourage everyone to contribute and see which words grow the biggest in the cloud.
Let the Choice Circle Make Decisions Fun
