I’ve been obsessed with peer learning and self-directed learning models in my own learning and the trainings I design and facilitate. Howard’s goal is to ignite a a peer-created guide to pure peer-to-peer learning. How can this idea be best adapted for professional development activities for nonprofit folks?

For the networked nonprofit workshops I facilitate, I’ve developed a maturity of practice assessment called “ Crawl, Walk, Run, Fly ” which gives me a detailed understanding of where the organization is in its practice. I have learned the feng shui of how classroom setup impacts interaction and learning.

Content delivery is less important then the skill to making sense of it and that needs to be what “classroom time” is about. The instructor’s role should be to facilitate this understanding for their students, not dump content on them. Allan Gunn from Aspiration and his legendary facilitation skills and knowledge.

As educators we strive to facilitate experiences where the content is so rich, the activity so engaging, and/or the skill so problem solving that students are motivated internally to continue to learn.
