Virtual Event

Virtual Event

Term explanation

Definition and meaning

A virtual event is an event that takes place entirely online, with all participants joining remotely via digital platforms. Virtual events range from webinars and online conferences to virtual trade shows, networking events, and team celebrations. They eliminate geographic and logistical barriers, allowing global participation at low cost. Successful virtual events invest in interactivity — live polls, Q&A sessions, breakout rooms, and networking features — to compensate for the lack of physical presence.

LIZ AI prepares virtual event presentations automatically. Before your event goes live, LIZ updates data, checks brand compliance, and ensures every slide is polished and ready — so presenters can focus on the event itself.

Open Questions

Open questions invite a full, unrestricted response rather than a simple yes or no. They typically begin with words like 'how', 'what', 'why', or 'tell me about'. In presentations, coaching, interviews, and research, open questions encourage deeper thinking, surface underlying perspectives, and generate richer dialogue. They are essential for understanding audience needs, facilitating discussions, and building engagement during interactive sessions.

Prompt Engineering

Prompt engineering is the practice of crafting and refining the instructions given to an AI system in order to produce better, more accurate, or more useful outputs. A well-engineered prompt provides clear context, specifies the desired format, and sets constraints that guide the model toward the intended result. In the context of presentation tools, prompt engineering determines how effectively a user can instruct an AI to generate the right slide structure, tone, and content — making it a practical skill for anyone working with generative AI tools.

Personal Response System (PRS)

A personal response system (PRS) — also called an audience response system or clicker system — allows individual participants to respond to questions or vote in polls during a presentation or class. Each participant uses a handheld device or smartphone to submit their answer, and results are aggregated and displayed instantly. PRS technology is used in lectures, corporate training, and conferences to increase participation, gauge understanding, and make sessions more interactive.
