Joseph's and John's words reminded me of a course I once did
with the World Health Organisation. Amazingly, I have the
monograph in front of me, "Educational Handbook for Health
Personnel", J-J. Guilbert, 1992.
In it, they draw heavily on the work of Mager (mid-50s) and
strongly advise that the workshop participants set their own
objectives. The "instructor" then sinks into the background
as the participants first identify their objectives, then
work out how they'll achieve them, and show that they have,
then find all the necessary information to do so.
These types of workshops tend to start slowly - the biggest
hurdle is often the participants overcoming their desire to
be told what to do - but once they get going it is a real
pleasure to behold...
Cheers,
Stephen
