Designing for Learning Feedback
Facilitator: Geoff Rip Date: 2-3 December 2008
Sample participant responses to the question:
What are the most valuable things you feel you have gained from this workshop?
§ I now have a better way of designing for learning rather than ‘designing for a presenter to run a learner-centred program’.
It has stressed for me the importance of learning strategies, processes and outcomes and the keys for understanding will help immensely in putting my programs together.
§ There are endless possibilities with promoting learning.
We must make learning facilitation a top priority when designing sessions and consider relevant strategies.
The sky’s the limit.
§ Being able to confidently design an engaging and enjoyable training session that will have guaranteed learning outcomes.
Having vast examples and tools to use in helping to design great sessions for clients.
Easy and logical methods and approaches that can be immediately applied in the workplace.
§ Structure around the ‘how’ to design training/facilitation modules.
Models – being a ‘left brainer’, trained models are a great tool for me to remember content.
§ This has opened my mind to a number of very practical, powerful models to designing.
I have gained a significant amount of knowledge and the workshop has provided an opportunity to look at training from a different perspective. The models are simple yet powerful.
§ Consolidated some of my own thoughts around instructional design, placing them in sound (research based) models which I can now use to validate my approaches – be in turn, as great ammunition in arguing the benefits of refection / eval / practice (i.e. process / output) in the development of learning programs.
Also that learning styles are only a small part of the big picture! Absolutely agree!
Finally learned something beyond my masters in L&D! Will recommend to anyone who will listen!
