The document discusses effective learning strategies and techniques. It emphasizes learner engagement and participation over passive learning. Some key points discussed include using visuals and real-world examples to engage learners, understanding how the brain learns best through patterns and repetition, and creating opportunities for learners to interact, apply the material, and take ownership of their learning experience. The document advocates for learning that is relevant, connects to learners' experiences, and builds a sense of community.

Now answer two questions:
1. What answer did you get?
2. How did you
get that that answer?
You may come up with the answer
in a different way than someone else.
Brains seek patterns and make meaning
based on past experiences.

Providing learning the “right way” takes more
work; the long-term payoff is worth it!
...and a
dirty little secret
Success raises the bar
for every program that follows
