Jump-Start Learn­ing

This sim­ple activ­ity works mag­i­cally to focus your par­tic­i­pants’ minds and sharpen their listening.

Tell par­tic­i­pants to:

  • Pair up.
  • Cre­ate a list of 3 impor­tant facts about the topic that they THINK you will cover in your presentation.
  • CIRCLE items on their lists that you men­tion dur­ing your lecture.
