Design new training and/or ‘tweak’ existing training to make it more engaging and effective both in the classroom and online
Develop a complete training package including learning objectives and workshop agenda, speaker’s notes, effective audio visuals (meaning minimal slides), workbooks, and interesting/relevant participant discussions and exercises
Deliver great lectures and develop skill in using new technologies that help bring your lectures to life
Lead interesting and productive discussions in the classroom and online
Respond diplomatically to common challenging classroom dynamics
Verify the effectiveness of training through quizzes, hands-on exercises and other evaluation tools
Develop greater confidence as an educator
“Alison practiced what she preached. We got to see and experience how to apply the theories. Great original material!”
At Designing Great Workshops you will:
Learn how people learn - How much information can we listen to without getting bored? How fast can humans process new information? How can we use this information to calculate how much information to include?
Use active learning to boost engagement and learning retention - How and when can we use discussions and learning activities to refresh attention spans and improve retention?
Design discussions, practice sessions, learning activities that help people learn - How can we incorporate active learning principles in a way that helps us teach better, more efficiently and more effectively?
Create excellent learning materials - What’s the difference between learning plans, visual aids, handouts/workbooks and speaker's notes? How can we create innovative learning materials and visuals? What new technologies exist to help us create excellent materials and visuals?
Respond to challenging classroom dynamics diplomatically - What behaviours are acceptable and which ones are problematic in a classroom setting? How can we prevent common and challenging classroom dynamics? How should we respond to common challenging dynamics that occur?
“Excellent examples, tips, tricks, best practices! Good strategies to take back and apply right away. Good confidence builder.”
