Have you ever felt like you were planning a dinner party when what you really wanted was a picnic? We have lots of options about how we design learning to engage and facilitate peer to peer learning. But sometimes it is easy to get stuck with “what we’ve always done.” Join Nancy White as we explore our repertoire of possibility for groups and learning. With Nancy, we’ll practice some of the real time webinar facilitation techniques that tutors can use to enable a supportive, collaborative and / or co-operative environment.
