2. What is a
“WORKSHOP”
approach?
The workshop method enables instructors to
function as the guide on the side, rather than as a
sage on the stage. Those using the workshop
method do not focus on telling students
information. Instead, they essentially create learning
experiences that guide, direct, and facilitate the
acquisition of new knowledge by the learner.
