New level of communication with students

I had many questions concerning not only idea of developing distant learning courses but questions on how to create the system that will preserve the educational spirit we have in classrooms. Fortunately, our hosts from Tampere University had answers to all my questions.
Now I know how to make students to work. We were described modern methods and tools, such as Zoom, Socrative, Canva, etc.  The set of these tools covers all my needs as a teacher. Now I can plan preliminary activities with students using Google drive to distribute all materials, Zoom to organize conversation with students, Socrative to evaluate students, Canva. To create nice looking presentations.
This workshop is my first experience of e-learning learning in depth. I was not very much enthusiastic on e-learning, supposing that classical methods of education are more efficient. Due to Sisko I understood that e-learning gives me more freedom and opportunities than traditional methods.

Thank tou, TAMK Team!

Sergei, I'm adding a list of the tools you mention in your post here with a brief description of how they can be used . These are the tools we discussed and tried out ourselves during the workshop:

Presentation of a part of the online course

I introduce myself. I am the director of an educational program "advertising and public relations" and a teacher of management. All my presentation you can see here
In TAMK we have developed part of the online course. The online course is about the basics of SWM economics. We practiced creating presentations in PREZI, created tests in SOCRATIVE and conducted web-conferences in ZOOM. At the end we learned to use various applications to create online courses. Nice people and friends are here in Tampere, Finland.
