This framework works like a charm, whether it is a one-hour webinar or 7 day intensive International training or college graduate course or year long peer learning program.

The learners will space out and come back to attention but not as at the high level at they did at the beginning of the presentation. Present a concept for 15 minutes, break people into small groups with a particular exercise to apply the material, and then come back as a full group for a report out. A bonus delivery tip.

The smaller screen (in most cases) and touch based interaction demands a change in the size of the course and the way it is being presented. People presume that smaller screens will not facilitate serious learning and mobile learning attracts distraction. Mobile Learning Signifies Learning on the Move.

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.

I've been thinking about how to best incorporate the back channel or in this case Twitter. Two recent blogs, " How To Present While People Are Twittering " and " Trends in Leadership Conferences " are the most recent blog posts packed with advice. How do you incorporate the backchannel in your conference or panel presentations?

How much does it cost to help one kid (clean one stream, present one performance, etc.). Alas, so many board meetings are stuck in dry business discussions — far away from the urgent, tough work in the field, on the stage, in the lab, in the classroom. Listening passively to presentation after presentation.

Or, individuals in a business course could complete an open-ended case study-based assessment to test how well they can apply the information presented, effectively testing skills acquired. You can present the key points in the history of developing the process out of order, and ask the learner to sequence them in the correct order.

He could no longer keep up with his peers in the classroom. This is because e-books (unlike traditional print) can easily be rendered in many different ways and presented in the format that best suits one’s needs.

I will take over the presentation of the screen. Sometimes, you have too many ideas so you need a strong facilitator who can make sure we hear from everyone, but are able to put these ideas through a funnel and find those common threads. Here we go. Julie: All right. If it goes a year or a year and a half, it can lose momentum.

This gallery has always been tough for exhibitions--it serves as a pass-through to the classroom, and during evening events, people pour through it on their way to and from classroom activities.

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. During my study and practice of elementary education, there was a drive to create experiences where learning was driven intrinsically.
