+# Instructor's Guide
+
+This guide is tailored to support facilitators running the weekly live sessions in the **4-week self-paced blended learning program**. The aim is to ensure every participant—regardless of digital literacy—feels included, confident, and engaged.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Communication & Support Channels
+
+### WhatsApp as a Backchannel
+
+* Use WhatsApp for quick, simple communication before and during the session.
+* Share joining instructions, reminders, and a safe space for questions.
+* Keep all messages short, clear, and friendly.
+
+### Follow-Up and Recording
+
+* Record each session for participants who cannot attend live.
+* Send follow-up messages with key points, answers to questions, and links to resources.
+
+## 2. Pre-Webinar Preparation
+
+* **Low-friction access**: Share a one-click link, avoid complex forms, and include step-by-step joining instructions with screenshots or a short video if needed.
+* **Tech check session**: Offer a brief “drop-in” slot before the event for audio, video, and connection tests.
+* **Plain language reminders**: Replace jargon with simple, direct instructions (e.g., “Click the blue button to join”).
+
+## 3. Opening the Session
+
+* Begin with a warm greeting to create a welcoming atmosphere.
+* Use low-tech icebreakers: thumbs-up on camera, show of hands, or a simple yes/no answer.
+
+## 4. Keeping the Technology Simple
+
+* Avoid unnecessary features or tools.
+* Share only essential screens to reduce visual clutter.
+* Verbally guide participants whenever changing visuals or tools.
+
+## 5. Inclisive Engagement Strategies
+
+* Favor voice interaction over typing.
+* Include physical participation: hold up an object, write something on paper, or point to something nearby.
+* Allow 5–7 seconds after questions to give time for thinking.
+* Rephrase questions without making participants feel wrong.
+* Celebrate every contribution warmly.
+* Gradually increase interaction complexity.
+* Normalize technical hiccups and treat them with humor.
+
+## 7. Sustaining Energy and Attention
+
+* Alternate 5–7 minutes of presentation with 1–2 minutes of interaction.
+* Use analogies linked to everyday experiences.
+* Rely on large, clear visuals rather than dense text.
+* Use quick, low-tech polls (e.g., raise hands, thumbs-up).
+
+## 8. Closing the Session
+
+* Invite each participant to share one takeaway verbally or with a gesture.
+* Send a brief recap via WhatsApp or email (short video or voice note preferred over long text).
+* Keep the session open 5–10 minutes for informal discussion.
+
+**Pro Tip:** Your calmness, clarity, and warmth are more valuable than any technical feature. If you’re confident with the tools, your participants will feel safe to explore and learn.
