Fun & Games for Workplace Learning (With CD-ROM)

McGraw-Hill has an extensive training book list. In particular, McGraw-Hill Australia is positioning itself as a market leader in this genre with authors such as Kroehnert, Greenwich and Leigh & Kinder. Our local training authors are either educators or consultants who can assist with marketing in Australia and it is this concentrated local promotion that has helped position us as an authority in this area.Following on from their successful first book with McGraw-Hill (Learning Through Fun And Games has sold 3 230 copies since publication in May 1999), authors Leigh & Kinder have written a new collection of original training games.Fun & Games for Workplace Learning is a compilation of 40 original Australian designs relevant to current workplace learning needs both here and internationally. The book is easy to understand and provides information on how to use the exercises as well as guiding the reader through selecting, running and debriefing activities to achieve particular learning outcomes.It is appropriate for beginners looking for clear guidance on workplace learning, as well as more experienced facilitators looking to expand their library of resources.This book is being published in a smaller trim size smaller than many of our other training books, and will feature a useful CD-ROM containing diagrams, charts, templates and other ancillary material which can easily be used for overheads, handouts and data projection.
