13. Using Training Techniques • Apply always a combination of techniques • Active participation of students should be encouraged as much as possible: participative training • Understanding basics and relations of the course subjects are more important than learning facts • Select a combination of techniques which is 'suitable' for both trainers as well as participants

14. Lecture Training Advantages :a quick and simple way to provide information to large groups.rather when compared to the other forms of trainingallows for the giving and taking of questions inexpensive

15. Lecture • Convey information, theories or principles • Depends on trainer for content

16. Keep It Simple and Short

17. Demonstration • Show and explain an activity • Provides a model • Learn by doing

18. Small Group Activity / Discussion • Learners share their own experience • 4- 8 participants in a group • Involve all participants

20. Case Study • Analysis of a hypothetical but realistic situation • No “right answers” • Participant devises his/her own solution

26. RAMP 2 FAME

27. Recency Things that are learned last are best remembered • Summarize frequently • Plan review sections • Divide subject into mini-topics of about 20 minutes in length

28. Appropriateness All information, training aids, case studies, etc must be appropriate to participant’s needs • Clearly identify a need • Use descriptions, examples or illustrations that the participants are familiar with

29. Motivation Participants must want to learn, must be ready to learn, must have some reason to learn • Presenter must also be motivated • Identify a need for the participants • Move from the known to the unknown

30. Primacy Things learned first are learnt best • Short presentations • Interesting beginning • Updates on direction and progress of learning • Get things right the first time

31. 2-way communication Communicate with participants • Include interactive activities in sessions plan • Match body language with verbal message

32. Feedback Trainer and trainee need information from each other • Include feedback activities (e.g., questions; tests) in sessions plan • Give feedback on performance immediately • Positive and negative feedback • Acknowledge good work (positive reinforcement)

33. Active learning Participants learn more when they are actively involved in the learning process • Use practical exercises • Use questions • Get the participants to DO it

34. Multiple-sense learning Learning is more effective if participants use more than one of five senses • Tell AND show • I see and I forget I hear and I remember I do and I understand. Confucius a. 450 BC

35. Exercise Things that are repeated are best remembered • Hear, see, practice, practice • Frequent questions • Frequent recall • Give exercises
