For anyone involved in teaching, training, sharing skills, or leading groups, this book is an invaluable resource!" Starhawk, author, The Earth Path, Dreaming the Dark, and Webs of Power "George Lakey has inspired our union to engage in education in a way that challenges us to redefine social justice and equality in new and exciting ways. This book helps us to continue our journey to touch the souls of union members." Denis Lemelin, national president, Canadian Union of Postal Workers "Facilitating Group Learning will ease the way of all who venture into the white waters of facilitation.

Practical "brain-aware" facilitation tailored to the adult brain Facilitating Learning with the Adult Brain in Mind explains how the brain works, and how to help adults learn, develop, and perform more effectively in various settings. Recent neurobiological discoveries have challenged long-held assumptions that logical, rational thought is the preeminent approach to knowing. Rather, feelings and emotions are essential for meaningful learning to occur in the embodied brain. Using stories, metaphors, and engaging illustrations to illuminate technical ideas, Taylor and Marienau synthesize relevant trends in neuroscience, cognitive science, and philosophy of mind. Readers unfamiliar with current brain discoveries will enjoy an informative, easy-to-read book. Neuroscience fans will find additional material designed to supplement their knowledge. Many popular publications on brain and learning focus on school-aged learners or tend more toward anatomical description than practical application. This book provides facilitators of adult learning and development a much-needed resource of tested approaches plus the science behind their effectiveness. Appreciate the fundamental role of experience in adult learning Understand how metaphor and analogy spark curiosity and creativity Alleviate adult anxieties that impede learning Acquire tools and approaches that foster adult learning and development Compared with other books on brain and learning, this volume includes dozens of specific examples of how experienced practitioners facilitate meaningful learning. These "brain-aware" approaches can be adopted and adapted for use in diverse settings. Facilitating Learning with the Adult Brain in Mind should be read by advisors/counselors, instructors, curriculum and instructional developers, professional development designers, corporate trainers and coaches, faculty mentors, and graduate students—in fact, anyone interested in how adult brains learn.

This volume presents models, methods, and strategies thatfacilitate and promote learning within onlineenvironments.Arguing that success in online environments isdependent on the role of autonomy in order to create sustained andenduring learners, the introductory chapter presents currentresearch and identifies ways through which autonomous learning isestablished within the learning environment. Contributors demonstrate how quality online programs aremade up of a "blend" of technology, pedogogy, organization,strategy, and vision; explore the concept of online socialpresence as a significant factor in improving instructionaleffectiveness and contributing to a feeling of community amonglearners; and offer strategies for instructors facingthe new challenges and opportunities of the online educationalexperience. Two chapters examine master's level online programmingby exploring a model through which the design templatefor one such program was built and presenting theactual experiences students who completed master's degreesonline. Editor Steven R. Aragon joins his colleagues to make thecase that instructional designers need ways to support qualityteaching and learning within online environments that take intoaccount the variability in student learning styles, provideexternal motivation for the isolated students, and build community,collaboration, and communications among learners. Finally,contributors from the field analyze the impact that onlinetechnology is having on training and development initiatives ofbusiness and industry and demonstrate how current trends havecultivated an environment open to online learning. This is the 100th issue of the Jossey Bass series NewDirections for Adult and Continuing Education.
