Active Training requires the participants to do most of the work. They
use their brains, and apply what they've learned. The environment is
fast-paced, fun, supportive, and personally engaging, and encourages
participants to figure things out for themselves. This book contains
specific, practical strategies for bringing this environment to any
training session.
- Learn new strategies for stimulating active discussion
- Inspire creativity, innovation, and collaboration
- Teach better decision making, leadership, and self-management
- Make lectures active to encourage more participation
Active training makes training sessions more enjoyable, and as
participants invest themselves more heavily into the material, outcomes
begin to improve dramatically. This dynamic atmosphere doesn't happen by
accident; the activities and the course itself must be designed and
delivered in a way that encourages active participation. In 101 More
Ways to Make Training Active, you get a toolkit of creative,
challenging, and fun ways to make it happen.
