Tips for Trainers: Increase e-learning retention with storytellingTeamings
Storytelling is a really powerful tool that can be used to teach adult learners and help them retain information.
1. Stories help the learner see the relevance of the topic. Adult learners need to know the reason for learning something and are most interested in learning subjects that have immediate relevance to their work or personal lives (see andragogy by Malcolm Knowles). By telling a story you can demonstrate how your subject matter relates to their job and why they need to pay attention.
2. Stories allow you to emotionally connect with your learners. Emotional responses help persuade learners to engage in the training and perform desired behaviors.
3. Stories make facts easier to remember. There is a lot of research to support this (see David Ausubel and Donald Norman) but most of us have experienced this phenomenon for ourselves. This is why mnemonic devices like “Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally” work so well. It’s a short story, but a much better story then “Parentheses, Exponents, Multiply or Divide, Add and Subtract”.
4. Stories make learning more fun. Carefully crafted stories can teach and entertain leaners, thus making learning a fun experience and increasing attention spans.
5. Brains listening to stories are more active. When you tell someone facts, you active the language processing section of their brain. When you tell someone a story, you active any part of their brain that they need to experience the story, including emotion, motor, sensory and frontal cortex. In some cases the brains of the storyteller and the listeners actually begin to synchronize

Passive learning is like downloading a PDF file from the internet to your computer. You can download the file without reading it or thinking about it. You can save the file in a folder where you can retrieve it later if necessary and still not understand anything in the file.
Whereas in an active learning approach, students can uncover information on their own using a variety of resources: to gather new information until it makes sense and to create new ideas using the information they have learned.

Shift to the future – the technological disruption of learning and work - cio...Brian Kuhn
We live in unprecedented times... technology is disrupting learning and work as we know it. Machines are taking over more and more jobs and we need to be preparing this generation for a very uncertain unpredictable rapidly changing world. Education needs to shift to a world of abundant knowledge, leveraged through networks, and knowledge engines. CIO's need to be futurists and guides for their organizations to lead them forward into the future.
Vision for the future of learning and workBrian Kuhn
A vision for how learning and work can be enabled through technology. Three key strategies are essential: infrastructure, access equity, and learning & work spaces/systems. The interesting work and learning is made possible once the first two are substantially addressed. The first two areas are barriers to learning and work if not addressed well.

SMARTboard learning team journey - CUEBC - October 2009
1. Collage of teacher pix Inderjeet Sheila Krista Brian Wendy Taryn Rob Brian Kuhn Manager of Information Services Coquitlam School District CueBC 2009 SMARTboard Learning Team Journey
2. School Context: 1 laptop in each class 1 full PC lap with a projector and a printer 4 SmartBoards 2 digital cameras 1 scanner The Question: 1. How do we operate the SmartBoard program? (all the functions) 2. What on-line resources are available and how do we access and use them? 3. How do we create our own lessons? 4. Do SmartBoards improve teaching and student learning? The Proposal: We would like to use SmartBoards as a tool to enhance teaching and student learning.
3. Interactive white board Write with your finger Manipulate numbers Draw pictures Insert web pages Write with colored pens
5. Learning teams are small groups of educators that meet to engage in a professional growth experience focused on improving instructional practice and student learning.
10. The Role of the Facilitator… What can I do that would help you feel supported and encouraged?
11. Structured, but give kids choices to show learning Wendy teaches grade 3 and she sponsored the learning team Won the draw getting 1stSmartBoard – time to learn! Will it improve student learning? Does improve engagement… New math grade 3’s 1st use of textbook is hard but now on CD put page on SB highlight, circle, add notes kids look forward SB allows easier sequencing tap link, up comes example… SB helps 2 autistic kids focus – huge help Advice… very time consuming but don’t be discouraged! Kids use NoteBook software in lab
12. What do you wonder about? how my Kindergartens will be using technology when they are in Grade 12 how much the SmartBoard will change the way I teach how we can share all the wonderful sites and programs that we have discovered if I will ever be able to fully feel comfortable using my smartboard how I am going to find the time to do all the work required to plan my unit how do I teach them? Scary.... about the next 10 years and what children are going to do with all of this technology how long it will take me to just learn the basics if it is a valuable use of teachingtime how I can best use the SmartBoard in a library setting about the measure aspect when I will be able to use my Smart Board. I am eager to get started if I am on the righttrack with my question
