For a workshop, plan on at least 2.5 hours of content in total. For virtual learning, one long video would be less engaging, so we suggest that you subdivide the content and create shorter video or audio files. The following is a suggestion for how that may be done (though the examples do not total 2.5 hours of content, as they are for the purposes of illustration). We hope this is helpful!
