About this title

Synopsis

"Participants will discover the learning that is true for them, not predetermined outcome decided for them by the facilitator."--Open to Outcome

Open to Outcome presents a learning cycle model built around five questions designed to take experience in a group setting and to connect and apply experiential learning to real life. The 5 Question Model effortlessly applies to groups of varying ages and skill levels and can easily be used to encourage leadership and mentoring roles among peers.

The authors use field-tested techniques to generate group discussion that increases individual member participation, learning, and internal reflection. A wonderful book for teachers, group facilitators, coaches, and others who work in an experiential or educational setting; Open to Outcome presents tools to heighten the learning experience.
