Setting up a virtual book club can be a fun and engaging way for students to read together. Here are some tips for getting started:
1. Choose a book. One of the best ways to start a virtual book club is by choosing a book that all of the members will want to read. Once the book is chosen, make sure to add it to your group’s reading list so that everyone is aware of its upcoming discussion.
2. Choose a discussion format. One of the benefits of having a virtual book club is that members can choose to have a discussion in text or audio form. If the discussion format is audio, make sure to have a speaker or microphone available so that everyone can participate.
3. Set a date. Once the book has been chosen and the discussion format has been decided, it’s time to set a date for the club’s first meeting. This meeting can be held online or in person depending on the group’s preference.
4. Get started. Once the date for the first meeting has been set, it’s time to get started. Make sure to have all of the book’s information handy as well as the discussion questions that have been determined. Be sure to encourage your group members to read the book and then come to the meeting prepared to discuss it.
