Managing Successful Learning

The human being has a natural capacity to learn. Yet delivering and judging effective learning is notoriously difficult. "Managing Successful Learning" sets out to turn "something" into "something satisfying". Quality training and teaching can lead to a team of highly motivated and competent individuals - and that includes the trainer. In this book, Robyn Peterson explores the uniqueness of the learning function and sets out theories on how people learn; the situations they learn best in; what motivates learners and holds their attention; over 30 practical steps to facilitate successful learning; how to design lessons and how to assess and judge the success of the learning provided. Annotated diagrams, charts and questionnaires crop up regularly throughout the book and serve to illustrate and clarify the points the author makes.
