Today we taped Julie Swanson, our Senior Outreach Specialist, giving her presentation on “Why Story?” about using stories to communicate with researchers, public health officials and even legislators. This launched a project to create several 10-20 minute instructional webinars for the preventive health community in collaboration with Wisconsin Public Television.
Julie normally presents in front of an audience and inspires audience participation, but for this project she presented to…no one! She was by herself in a production booth. I must admit, watching from the production studio I found myself nodding to her face on the screen. She has audience engagement even through the camera.
Information will soon be available regarding how you can access the "Why Story?" webinar.Next up, we will be following Julie to the 2011 State Prevention Conference, June 13-16, to videotape more presentations. This year's theme is "Using the Power of Our Voices to Influence Change," and there is still time to register.
Prevention Speaks webinars will be a resource to bridge the research-to-practice gap, offering practical, succinct, readily accessible information and tips in prevention efforts. We are looking forward to hearing from our audience about their experience using them.
