Brain-based Principles for Engagement and Retention in the Virtual Classroom
By Cynthia Clay, CEO
In this engaging TLDCast, we’ll explore four brain-based principles that result in maximum attention, engagement, learning retention and application. Brain researchers know that the challenge of moving information from short-term to long-term memory requires us to encode, store, and retrieve it repeatedly. We have to help people get past the “I already know that” filter by presenting content in novel and creative ways. We must create safe learning spaces for people to explore, tackle challenges, fail, reflect and adopt new practices to succeed. We must light up the reward center in our learners’ brains. Our job as designers and facilitators for the virtual classroom is to move people through thinking, doing, giving feedback, and receiving feedback as they build new synapses that support long-term retention and application of critical concepts.
Join this session to explore four principles (two principles that support engagement and two principles that support retention). You will change the way you design and deliver learning experiences as you leverage the neuroscience of learning to ensure on-the-job behavior change and application of new skills.
Trends in Virtual Training: What’s Now, What’s New, and What’s Next
By Cindy Huggett, Consultant | Facilitator | Author | Speaker
We will examine several interesting developments, including the implications of mobile devices for live online learning, the move towards short live learning snippets, and the explosion of video in live online classes. We’ll also give you opportunity to compare your virtual training initiatives to modern learner expectations.
You will leave this session with tangible ideas that can be immediately applied to help keep you “in the know” and ready for virtual training in 2018, 2019 and beyond!
