Training From the Back of the Room. \u00a0One of the most interesting parts of this book to me is that the author, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bowperson.com\/\">Sharon Bowman<\/a>, talks about a completely different teaching paradigm &#8211; in this paradigm the instructor&#8217;s job is to facilitate the learners&#8217;s education rather than just deliver content. \u00a0Most of the classroom experience of the the learners is spent interacting with one another, completing activities which reinforce the lessons provided by the instructor and putting into practice the tools and skills they just learned.<\/p>\n<p>This idea of training from the back of the room is very intriguing to me. \u00a0In the past, I had a very traditional classroom which focused on me giving lecture to the students. \u00a0Unfortunately, I was not entirely satisfied with the results and was looking for something more interesting and more powerful. \u00a0Earlier this year I had a chance to participate and host a Welfare CSM course with Tobias Mayer and saw that one can create real change with the students through a completely interactive and immersive classroom experience WITHOUT one Powerpoint slide. \u00a0Since June, I have been trying out a number of activities from this book to help improve my Scrum trainings. \u00a0From my initial experiments so far, I noticed that I spend a lot less time talking and the learners seem more engaged in the learning experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier this year, Bob Hartman mentioned this really interesting book &#8211;
