Simple and Effective!

This is a MUST HAVE for presenters/trainers. An easy read packed with simple, powerful and effective training techniques. After years of presenting and training, I've finally found the basic "instuction manual" I've been looking for. Fundamental tips, presented in a way that is simple to grasp and just as easy to apply. Now that I've read this, I'm revising all my training materials. Not only are my presentations more effective and engaging for participants as a result of reading this, but they are much more interesting as a presenter.

COMPACT AND COMPREHENSIVE

In this short book, Dr. Joye Norris uses her long experience in adult education to show us a clear route towards learning. Reading this book is like taking a course with her! In an accessible and readable format, Dr. Norris shows teachers and designers of adult learning sessions not only how to, but also why this approach works. I recommend this book to adult educators, to academics who teach adult education and to designers of training in any field. It will give you a sense of the arduous journey we who are concerned about learning, need to take to move from telling to teaching.
