I wanted to chime in on Fred's thoughtful thread here. I've also thought a lot about this and have a couple thoughts and of course a #bookrecommendation.

A talk/speech: the "expert" is talking at the audience for 90%+ of the session.

An interactive workshop: the facilitator is engaging learners in dialogue, reflection, and interaction for most of the session.

Yes? No? Thoughts?

And I strongly agree with Fred that we should be transparent about which type of session we're offering.

Now for the book rec: This book has greatly influenced my presentation style and thoughts about #FacDev. I can't recommend it enough if you're going to present to human beings. It's geared toward f2f but highly relevant to online.

I looked long and hard for a book about leading interactive workshops. Not a lot out there. @CleaMahoney maybe we should write one about online workshops and webinars?
