Facilitating Learning™: Background

Examining the difference between "lecturing" and "facilitating" provides the theme of this two-day workshop, with a focus on how to enhance adult learning through effective facilitation and communication skills.

1. Advanced Presentation Skills

We recommend that each participant be a presenter with some experience. This means that part of the Facilitating Learning™ workshop will focus on refreshing and polishing presentation techniques.

2. Advanced & Intermediate Facilitation Skills

Participants will receive handouts that focus on the specific needs of facilitating adults. Our instructor’s role is to blend presentation technique, with facilitation technique, according to the skill level of the group.

3. Good Communication Equals Good Learning

McLuhan & Davies research shows how learning can be improved through knowledge of: communication styles (plus learning styles); and blending of interactive, analytical and spontaneous facilitation.
