I’ve participated in several sessions of GDLN Blended Learning since 2015, especially when the host is KDI School from Korea. This year, Indonesia a.k.a. FETA, my institution, will be the host for 2018 GDLN seminars.
Btw, becoming a moderator for vicon sessions is not new to me, and I always prepare my own script to keep on the track during the session. I want to share you all the kind of script that I prepared for GDLN vicon. Here it is:
