Description
The only book providing advice on facilitating workshops aimed specifically at lecturers and academics. Full of practical resources and materials including suggested activities, handouts and whiteboard layouts to help people tasked with running workshops in higher education settings or at conferences, even without having received specific training.
Reassuring, sensible advice about the topic of workshops with sound theoretical underpinnings to support its immensely practical ideas...a very positive and welcome addition to the literature.' - Dr Bill Dunn, Professional Development Adviser, University of Oxford, UK 'This is an excellent book that offers something for both the experienced lecturer and the novice. One of the many strengths is the way the book interweaves theory and practice, exploring the best ways to facilitate workshops and providing the underlying theory to support these ideas. The authors are both highly experienced practitioners and have provided an extremely readable text that is positively brimming with good ideas.' - Rob Abbott, Senior Lecturer in Early Childhood and Education, University of Chichester, UK
