Creative Learning

Creative Learning is written by master trainer Bob Lucas, and offers a treasure trove of innovative and highly effective activities to simulate learning. The activities are tailor-made for trainers, presenters, and educators, and can be put to use in virtually any type of learning environment. Each activity offers a different approach to learning, but all are designed using a brain-based-learning approach that is proven to mentally or physically engage learners and enhance their learning experience.

The activities in this book offer a fun and engaging group experience, and they are meaningful, time effective, cost effective, adaptable, non-threatening, and involve people on both the mental and emotional level.

Throughout the book, the author offers suggestions on getting the most out of each activity and guidance on selecting and choosing an appropriate activity for the pivotal stages in the learning process:

• Getting started with a variety of session openers and icebreakers

• Re-energizing the brain by choosing from energizers, brainteasers, and motivators

• Conducting interim reviews using props, puzzles, and games

• Ensuring the transfer of learning using group activities and transitions

• Ending on a high note with pizzazz by reviewing important concepts, and session closers

Actively engaging learners can add fun, novelty, and functionality to any session. Lucas shows that by harnessing the power of group learning you can combine collective knowledge and ideas while helping to enhance the learning experience for all concerned.

Creative Learning's games and activities are easy to set up and facilitate and the time lengths vary to suit different learning needs and instructor preferences. The book also contains a resources section that includes books, websites, and other resources on the topic of facilitating games and activities.
