  • 6. Personal Cards. Ask participants to make a card representing themselves using trading cards: http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/deck.php. After making a card they can post it online. You can ask them to prepare a card about a specific aspect of their lives or their own style. For instance, their own communication or learning style.
  • 8. Would you rather? Ask participants some 'Would you rather' questions and let them answer them. After this participants can make up their own would you rather questions. Come up with a list of Would you Rather Questions or use some of these:• Would you rather always win pie-eating contests or always win wheelbarrow races?• Would you rather be a deep sea diver or an astronaut?• Would you rather be able to hear any conversation or take back anything you say?• Would you rather be invisible or be able to read minds?• Would you rather be the most popular or the smartest person you know?• Would you rather be the sand castle or the wave?• Would you rather give up your computer or your pet?• Would you rather never use the internet again or never watch TV again?• Would you rather not be able to use your phone or your e-mail?

  • Improving your instruction makes it easier for students to learn
  • what’s making the course hard
  • students may be finding the course hard because the instruction isn’t very good—not well organized, unclear explanations, content seemingly irrelevant, and poorly constructed test questions
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • students may find the course challenging because the content isn’t easy and the instructor has high standards.
  • ineffective instruction makes the students work harder,
  • support courses with rigor and standards
  • If students are convinced there’s no way they’re going to succeed in a course, the bulk of them stop trying, and that certainly effects what they learn in the course
  • What students need are
  • course experiences that result in lots of learning—where they master the material, further develop the sophisticated learning skills necessary for lifelong learning, and where the encounter leaves them breathless to learn more

  • So Glover decided to keep trying, buoyed by the belief that vastly different results can come from the same children depending on the actions of adults.
  • Blended learning is one of the most rapidly growing trends in education because it gives teachers the ability to simultaneously meet the needs of various ability levels.

  • Blended learning is a great approach to take for concepts that can’t be completely communicated in one sitting or seminar.  If this is the case, it is a good idea to break up the topic into different delivery structures.  For instance, you can create an “Intro” course to the topic as an e-Learning module.
  • save the higher level content for live training, therefore leaving you more time for questions.  It also allows participants to get exposure to the content before the actual event – thus decreasing the initial learning curve.  At the end of the online module, allow participants to submit their initial questions or concerns.  Again, this will enable you to customize the live training so that it addresses the major concerns of the group.
  •  As a general rule of thumb, these virtual events should not be over two hours long as that is a long time to sit on a call, and you’ll lose the attention of the audience.

  • The introductory e-Learning shapes your live training event.  You can get a sense of what areas you should focus on and where you might experience some push back.
  • record this webinar and to make it available for people who could not attend.  This makes a useful tool for future reference.
  • blended learning approach
  • maximize learning and reinforce the message to participants.

  • Email Icebreaker #4: “I’m intrigued by…” Mention what interests you and what you liked about the other person’s online dating profile. “I have been on and off of Match.com and am actually dating a guy from there now,” says Amy Jo Beaver, a health coach in Atlanta. “My number-one suggestion is to actually read the person’s profile and reference what things you liked in it, and then ask a question (or questions) specific to that particular profile. Too many guys send generic emails that make me wonder whether they actually even read my profile.” Angela Dupont, a lead concierge living in Dallas/Ft. Worth, agrees: “My biggest gripe was when someone would just send a ‘hey, what’s up?’ type of email. I looked for proof that he actually read my profile and comprehended what it is that I’m looking for. Men need to show me a little bit about how they relate to me and why they think we could have something in common.”
