What do we mean by INTERACTIVE?
![Page 3: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

Why do you want your class to be INTERACTIVE?
![Page 5: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

• Adults learn better when they participate
• Lectures can be boring
• It’s easier to keep people’s attention when they are involved

Why do learners or participants want training to be INTERACTIVE?
![Page 7: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

• They can voice their thoughts and opinions
• They can share with others
• Learners can relate their own experiences
![Page 8: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Interactive Learning
Interactive means acting with each other.
A conversation / exchange between people is called interaction.
The quality of being interactive is known as interactivity.
![Page 9: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Interactive Learning Objectives
• Utilize a variety of question/answer techniques
• Use verbal and nonverbal signals
• Choose appropriate group activities
• Manage learning activities using 3-step process
![Page 10: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Interactive Learning
Lecturing and stand up presentation skills are important but equally important is involving your students in the process of learning
![Page 11: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Let’s brainstorm some ideas on why question and answer might be a valuable tool in training.
![Page 12: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
• Feedback on learner understanding
• Different points of view
• Shared experiences
![Page 13: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

Question and Answer
Overhead
Direct
![Page 14: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
14
• Encourage discussion
• Challenge group
• Provide wide range of responses
• Do not put individuals in embarrassing position if they don’t have answer
![Page 15: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
15
• Allow talkative learners to take over
• Can lead to group going off on tangents
• Can get confusing when too many answer at once
• Can get very quiet if no one answers
![Page 16: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16
• Makes sure everyone is involved by distributing participation
• Allows quiet learners to get involved
• Makes it easier to manage the discussion
![Page 17: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
• Too much control
• Inhibits learner-to-learner communication
• Makes people uncomfortable
![Page 18: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Question and Answer
Overhead Direct
Best when used in small groups & seminars where learners are naturally talking & sharing “at large”
Best with large groups & when lecture is the chosen delivery style
Contd..
![Page 19: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

When you do use direct questions to:
• Give the individual sufficient time to frame an answer and
• Deal with the answers you get in a positive way
![Page 20: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Question/Answer
Just as there are 2 general categories of questions – Direct and Overhead, there are also 2 questioning techniques –
Open ended and Closed
Contd..
![Page 21: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Question/Answer
Open ended questions offer a vast choice of possible responses and are thought provoking and non restrictive. They can be used to:
Allow for a choice of answers and viewpoints
Promote open participation
Learn the feelings of participants on subject matter
Contd..
![Page 22: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Question/Answer
Closed questions elicit a single response and ask for a specific piece of information. They can be used to:
Seek confirmation or denial – YES / NO
Assess the level of learning of participants
Gain feedback in a short period of time
![Page 23: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Handling Responses
Asking of questions – direct or overhead, open ended or closed is important and we will obtain all types of answers – correct, partially correct and incorrect.
How we respond to them is another important aspect of interactive learning.
![Page 24: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Responding to Questions
• Relay
• Reverse
• Answer
• Defer
![Page 26: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Responding to questions
Relay: Turn the question over to the group through an overhead question.
Reverse: Turn the question back to the person who asked.
Answer: Provide an answer & if possible relay or reverse it afterward for participant input.
Defer: Offer to get back to the question later
If you do not know the answer, be honest & admit it or offer to find out & get back
Contd..

Responding to questions
There are times when we get:
Just right amount of input and answers
However, sometimes we must use signals to keep the discussion going as we need more inputs
Or at times we must curtail the discussion as we are getting sidetracked and need to move on
![Page 28: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Verbal and Non Verbal Signals
To keep the discussion going: VERBAL
“Good!”
“Can anyone give us more?”
“What do others think?”
“Can you expand on that?”
Contd..
![Page 29: Interactive Learning FDI-2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022110302/549244d1b47959c00c8b47aa/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Verbal and Non Verbal Signals
To curtail the discussion: VERBAL
“I think we’ve covered it”
“Could we continue this discussion after class?”
“Thank you for all your input?”
“Does everyone has this down?”

Take 15 minutes to:
1. Briefly review the assigned topics: what is activity? When and how can it be used? What are the benefits of using it in training?
2. Determine a specific example of the activity that you might use in Lions training.
3. Be prepared to explain in five minutes or less the activity concept in general and to share with the entire class your specific example including:
• The situation• What your learners would do• Why this activity would be helpful• How you would debrief the activity• What you hope the learners would gain from the
activity• After 15 minutes, ask each group to present its
activity overview

• What have we learned from our presentations and discussions
• Will we incorporate group activity into our own Lions training endeavours
