| Abstract
|
:
|
Whether you're a full-time workplace learning professional or occasional trainer, you'll find something in this collection to make group learning more fun, and more effective. Elaine Biech, author of Training for Dummies, challenged some of the world's best game designers to create a never-before-seen game using the most popular training toys and tools from Trainer's Warehouse, the nation's leading supplier of learning resources. The result is one of the most ingenious, and inventive collections of learning games using a host of common and readily available tools and toys, from throwables and tactiles, to white boards on a stick and noise-maki- ng boomwackers. The range of included games will appeal to anyone who delivers training and education--and presenters, too--and runs from short energizers, icebreakers and closers, to more involved group and team-building activities.
