Using Visuals: Tools for Trainers and Facilitators

Tuesday, November 14, 2017

4:30-6:00 PM 
Daniels Fund (see link below for directions)

Snacks provided

Objectives:

  1. Turn concepts and text blocks into visuals.
  2. Fine tune your listening skills to create visuals.

Description:

As a trainer or a facilitator, your goal is to help your learning audience "get" the content you are delivering as easily as possible. The power of visuals helps enormously, as the brain processes images at a very high rate of speed. If you are a trainer, you may want to prepare some powerful flipcharts or job aids before your class to support your training. If you are a facilitator, you may want to create visuals on the fly as your session progresses. No, you don't have to be an artist to make this effective. Yes, the most important skill is listening. Join the Facilitator's Exchange Special Interest Group (SIG) as we conduct an hands-on session with some practical tools and skills for you to apply in your work.

Sue Fody, GOT IT! Learning Designs, LLC. 

Sue FodySue has over 21 years of experience creating learner-focused training programs for both classroom and online learning. She integrates graphic maps and illustrations into the training sessions. These maps are designed to compress the learning curve and increase learning retention.  For the 65% of us who are visual learners, watching the formation of visual content as it unfolds in the classroom is an exciting experience that reinforces key concepts

Sue is owner of GOT IT! Learning Designs, LLC, which offers instructional design and graphic recording. Why the name GOT IT!? By illustrating complex concepts, the visual representation makes understanding so much easier than reading or hearing it, the learner says, “Oh! I see it now! I GOT IT!”

Sue is on the board of the Rocky Mountain Chapter of The Association for Talent Development (ATD), and is Past President of the Northern Rockies Chapter. She is also a member of the International Federation of Visual Practitioners (IFVP), the growing organization for graphic recorders.
