What's the right setting for delivering Experiential Learning content?
In the blog I wrote last month I tried to address some of the assumptions about experiential learning that seem to be getting in the way of people including elements of this approach in their programming. It seems that the most pervasive of these assumptions is about the physical spaces that are needed to deliver effective experiential content. To ...

Are your assumptions about Experiential Learning getting in the way of a breakthrough in performance?
My friend and colleague Graham Cook is heading to Florida later this month where he'll be delivering a session at Training Magazine's 'Training 2024' conference and exhibition. His session is titled 'How to Design Behavioral Change Using Experiential Learning Activities'. I'm not going to be alongside him for this conference but that doesn't mean I...

Continuous Professional Development for Focused Experiential Learning
Most good trainers and facilitators I meet tend to have a strongly developed intuition about the needs of others. It doesn't take long for them to get to understand what will help a student to learn, and how learning material needs to be presented to make it easier for that learning to take place. As these trainers and facilitators become more ...

What's The Best Seasonal Gift You Could Give?
It’s a question I often read around this time of year, and it inevitably provokes responses from extremes of opinion. There are those who go full-on consumerist and suggest expensive cars, jewellery, homes etc, ideas that are balanced by those who reject these ideas and suggest good health, happiness, close family etc.
So, as I&rsquo...

How do facilitators work with groups who have had an 'easy win'?
There were some interesting responses to last month’s blog which considered how to handle a session where your group are unsuccessful at completing the experiential task you have set them. For some people this was accepted as very sound advice, and it seems to have taken away some of the ‘fear of failure’ that was out there. ...

This beautifully designed set of 48 thought provoking questions can be used in lots of ways including coaching, personal reflection, one-to-one discussion and group work. The Good Question Cards are a simple but powerful tool to help prompt people to look at situations in a different way - taking a positive appreciative inquiry approach, which might help them see things differently. Use them to help generate good questions to ask as part of an experiential learning cycle review.
These cards are an ideal resource if you want to help people appreciate and build on the good things in their lives - their strengths, their successes and the positive people and circumstances around them. These positive questions can be a powerful resource to help shift mindsets.
There are 6 x question familiies with eight questions in each, allowing you to choose a question set that's best suited to the situation:
- Appreciating you
- Appreciating others
- Wider appreciation
- Raising self-awareness
- Seeing the world differently
- Creating change

Here are some ideas for uses of the Good Question Cards
1. Personal Reflection
At the end of each day, take one card at random.
Read the question and reflect on your answer.
• Try to make this process part of your routine, so that you take a few minutes to do this every day.
• You might want to do this at the end of the working day, at dinner time (perhaps with family) or at bedtime.
• It’s a good idea to write down your reflections in a notebook and refer back to them at a later date.
Tip: You could use a version of this activity within a team.
Choose a card at random each day, or each week, and put it up on the wall. Ask everyone to write their reflections on a
sticky note and put them around the question.
2. Moving Towards Change
1. Take cards 25 to 48 and arrange them into the 3 colourcoded families.
2. Ask the person to choose 3 questions from each family and answer each in turn, moving from the lowest numbered card through to the highest.
3. After each set of 3 questions, ask them whether there’s anything they want to be doing differently, based on their responses.
Encourage them to create an action plan.
