Lose the Lecture: Engaging Approaches to Early Childhood Professional Learning

Professional development is important, but early childhood professionals get just as bored, worn out, and disengaged from learning as their younger counterparts do. But while pre-K and K–12 classroom learning continues to evolve and improve, adult learners are often left by the wayside! There must be a better way.

Lose the Lecture brings administrators, coaches, and facilitators a new approach to professional development and adult learning that focuses on the learners—how they think, what they need, and what motivates them to grow. Paperback. 224 pages.

Learn how to:

• Teach adult learners in the ways they learn best
• Facilitate meaningful group learning
• Engage participants in honest communication and reflection

This book features tips, tools, and strategies to help you turn professional learning from a dreaded requirement to a meaningful opportunity. The best part? There’s no slide deck!
