Principles, tools and techniques for more effective training
In this practical Lunch n Learn, Sheridan Webb draws on her Brain-Friendly Training Design work to share principles, tools and techniques for designing more effective training.
We’ll take a light-touch look at the science behind how people pay attention, process information, remember and apply what they’ve learned.
Then we’ll focus on what that means in practice: the choices you can actually make when designing training.
Five things you can use straight away
-
Attention, load and memory
How these three shape what people are actually able to learn.
-
Processing without oversimplifying
Practical ways to make information easier to take in without stripping out its substance.
-
Making it stick
Design techniques that help learners make sense of, remember and retrieve what they’ve learned.
-
Beyond learning to doing
Why learning on its own isn’t enough, and how to design with application and transfer in mind.
-
A sense-check for your own designs
Simple, evidence-informed principles you can use on your own training material.
