Book Description

April 1990 Building Blocks of Human Potential
This edition reflects the latest work and advances in adult learning theory. Readers learn to develop meaningful programmes and use new techniques for effectively teaching adults. After examining the various theories of learning, the book presents the reasons why teaching adults is so different than teaching children. The book contains 13 appendices (100 pages) which give an overview of brain dominance technology and whole-brain thinking. There is also a self-diagnostic tool (photocopiable) for determining the competency of trainers, guidelines for learning contracts and ideas on how to switch from being a teacher to being a "facilitator of learning".

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Adult Learner: A Neglected Species (Building Blocks of Human Potential) (Hardcover)
The book that was delivered was "Designing and Evaluating Games and simulations". However, the little sticker on the back was the correct book. I haven't returned the book but probably should have done.
