    T is For Training 392 – Going to the Wisdom Carnival

    With T is for Training Host Maurice Coleman away for the evening, we were faced with a simple choice: persevere with a substitute host or pull the plug. The fact that you’re reading this and about to listen to the recording tells you that substitute host Paul Signorelli—along with Regular Suspects Jared Bendis, Aaron Blumberg, Tom Haymes, and Mark Corbett Wilson—persevered with a conversation centered on “Persevering or Pulling the Plug in Training-Teaching-Learning.” Among the ideas bubbling up during the conversation: the nature of heroism in learning and persevering, helping learners persevere by making things crystal clear, engaging learners to produce, and peer learning as the highest level of learning. Hope you enjoy the conversation. Full notes (and links!) on tisfortraining.wordpress.com

    T is For Training 388 – You're not the best memory of You Yet

    Paul, Tom, Mark, Aaron, Jared, and Maurice talk about reducing barriers to learning. Here is the link to the article we primed the pump. https://www.ispringsolutions.com/blog/barriers-to-learning We started with who is the author? Is the author real, or memorex, group think, or AI. This was a bit of a discussion. While the article is ok, is it citeable? Then, creating space for the person learning to engage with the trainer and authors, to create a community of learning and inquiry. How do we get people to value the road, not the destination? Our job is to break down the barriers to learning. And putting them in touch with their voice. And how to express that voice. Full notes at tisfortraining.wordpress.com
