Workshop Design and facilitations:
Presented by:
Schumacher: July, 16
Dear colleagues,
We, today, dealt with a very energetic and motivating workshop that focuses on:
-Setting differences and similarities between teacher-class and teacher-workshop. We learnt a large number about them e.g.
-You have first to have a full evaluation of the level of the trainees.
- Know the participants needs.
- Presenting new materials.
- Teaching as practice approach.
- Discovering them, initiative.
- Interactive process through giving more opportunity for everyone to take with him as a facilitators or a presenter.

Effective/behavior :
- Techniques of the a presenter that forms a successful beginning:
- Structure: Logical
- Interrelated
- Discussions -brainstorming –handouts =role play –problem solving
- use of technology –group work-reflection-evaluation forms anecdotes
- games—creating themes-arguments.
- Behavior:
- Energetic- element of surprise –skills to facilitate
- Sense of humor-value time
- Master his work
- Elicit knowledge
- (Convince me by involving me)
- It is important for the trainee to value the workshop not the presenter.
Power point, used to show what they are dealing with in a sequence
It is not preferred to read aloud the data on the PowerPoint.
-It is important to plan, design before the workshop.
(what was new to me to know the word ----gimmics:-different types of using tricks using PowerPoint. It is a waste of time.

Finally, workshops are useful for every teacher to develop and consolidate his teaching process through these workshops teachers find variety of skills and motivated methods to adapt to his /her students suitable for their environment
