Critically examining training example videos for learning about train-the-trainer programs and supporting development of management critical thinking skills

File pdf 91KB

As educators we often want students to not just be passive recipients of knowledge but rather active participants in learning, applying knowledge to real world situations. This session illustrates how when teaching about train-the trainer programs I have students critically evaluate in class discussions actual example videos from train-the-trainer programs, applying the concepts discussed to these actual examples. The videos both provide students useful information and give them the opportunity to evaluate the degree to which the trainers in the video show those concepts. This session presents an example and offers potential avenues for application to different management topic areas.
