 Kris Teo Facilitation -  Learning environment

Below is a picture of the classroom before start of lesson facilitation. The learners are comfortably seated or positioned and yet able to have a good view of myself, slides, and charts.  

Printed my slides with rehearsed notes (more like scribbles) to help me facilitates.

Print out enough copies of “Group task” hand-out to allow group participation.

To ensure slides or videos turn out as well as we prepare it, it's better to use own lap-top (computer) rather than using the class-computer that I am not too familiar with. Further any slides or setting adjustment is easier with lap-top that you are familiar with.

When possible, I like to use a “clicker with laser pointer” to allows better control of media and ease of  “pointing”

e-Portfolio Entry 6 (16 Jul 2014)

Kris Teo Facilitation of a topics from Lesson Plan

a. Topics: Basic Selling Skill Part 1

It is not easy choice to choose the above topics since it is a 2-day course (complete). But I took out a small portion of this 2-day course and modify it to suit the learners. Idea was to both allow cover as many points as I can on facilitation and same time allow learners to really "learn" something new in the facilitation.

b. Lesson plan attached on the under-lined "Kris Teo Lesson Plan" which is in pdf format.

Kris Teo Lesson Plan
This lesson plan uses Gagne's 9 Events as foundation to create each activities. Not attach here; pls email me to get a copy if necessary. 

c. Video Attached

Here's the complete video for the lesson plan facilitation. I'd edited the video so that "dead space or quiet moment" and "admin activities like handing out forms, group-task etc" are deleted. There is also a prelude to this video to show that there was an earlier session of lesson which talks about "ice-breaking", "content introduction", "Learning Objective" and even a topics on first learning objectives.  Here's the link to the prelude video.... Prelude Video to actual-topic facilitation. (Not attach here; pls email me to get a copy if necessary.)

After this prelude-video, the topics to be facilitated " basic questioning technique" was captured below.

I'd added caption in the video to show, at least as much as I can do ( This is an small example of the video clip since full video is too large to put in);

Part 1 of video, Showing some basic facilitating of lesson

Another segment of video on facilitating Group-Task

Throughout the video, there were use of non-verbal communications and before closing, some discussion were made on how to transfer the knowledge to apply on actual life situation or workplace....such as “asking boss for a raise”....

.

As an experience presenter, this was still a good exercise and practice to allow myself better understanding of lesson facilitation.
