Welcome
Beth asked in FriendFeed: How do you personally handle it (emotional level per se) when someone you are trying to train or educate about something just doesn’t seem to get it no matter how many ways you come at it. They resist no matter what and rather blame technology than the human part of the equation.
Inspired by a post from Lori Reed:3 Trainer’s Tips to Start the New Year: Let’s discuss what our training tips to other trainers are for the start of the new year.
Peter tapped the hive mind with the question: What distance/virtual learning software do you have experience with and what would you recommend?
Handouts? Inspired by this article: How to: Build a Social Media Cheat Sheet for Any Topic Do you use them in your workshops? If so, how many? Is too much, too much or are too few, too few?
See you on the next episode of T is for Training on Friday January 30th at 2 pm Eastern Time.
