\n\t\t\t\t\u201cIn 2019, after using traditional web-conferencing systems for their online training and meetings, AVID began looking for a product that had a seamless integration with their eLearning platform and was easy to use.\u201d\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t said AVID\u2019s Senior Learning Designer, Marc Dembowski<\/cite>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\u201cDue to Covid-19, it forced us to investigate one platform that could integrate with multiple digital tools including BigBlueButton. At the time, BigBlueButton provided a robust, stable solution and had a big enough feature set that could support our standard of high engagement learning online.\u201d\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

AVID piloted the use of BigBlueButton for their online training in the fall of 2019 with a successful virtual book study and, according to Marc, the rest is history. AVID facilitators model best strategies for increasing student engagement via the use of polls, chats, multi-user whiteboard, breakout rooms, chat, and shared notes. Participants experience these high-quality engagement strategies as learners so that they can apply their learning back into their own classroom, school, or site. BigBlueButton has been built into the core of Canva\u2019s platform since 2012. Blindside Networks provided hosting for both a Free Tier version of BigBlueButton, and customers can upgrade to the Premium Tier for permanent recordings and support.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
