Abstract	Many options exist for using technology as a tool for adult learning, and each day, it becomes easier to share information online than it ever has been. Online learning technology has grown from one-sided communications to numerous options for audience engagement and interactivity. This guide introduces a variety of tools, online platforms, and terms related to current online learning technology and gives advice on selecting the best option for the reader's needs. Users of these tools are encouraged to "test drive" a variety of approaches before identifying the best approach to use in different circumstances. Appendix A provides a glossary of online learning terms. For information on how to create online learning sessions, consider the list of resources provided in Appendix B. Contents include: (1) Goal and Definitions; and (2) Choosing the Right Technology: Three Types of Tools (Webinars, Screen Shares and Conference Calls, and Video Chats). (ERIC).
