FREE online courses on Building a Winning Team - Encouragement and Feedback - Use Visual Aids To Communicate

 

Visual aids are literally visual inputs to enhance, and retain, learning, the brain being much more likely to retain information when it is accompanied by visual, audio, audio, olfactory or other sensory supporting-data.  A whiff of home cooking or a rainbow in a fountain can evoke memories of home, maybe a hemi- sphere away! Salesmen and grocers use this knowledge all the time, insisting that you feel the material or sniff the mango! Basically the same techniques are used in boardroom and classroom presentations. Some tips to keep in mind for this:

They vary in complexity, but keep it simple! Get two or three fundamentals across clearly, rather than explain the whole thing and have no one remember anything.

Practice smooth integration of oral and visual data.

Flip charts: use for brainstorming, building-up graphs, budget statements, etc., and write BIG!

White boards are widely used but use water-based pens so that writing will rub off!

Overhead projectors, many palm-top compatible, can be very effective. Use bold cartoons, line images and graphics.

Slides/ readymade training films: they have a cost-benefit angle, but are really good.

 

 

More people buy a car for the way the interior smells or the clarity of the music system, other things being equal (which they never are!) in a world increasingly filled with clones…a penalty for living in an age of mass-production. The aim of development is to customize our human resources, to encourage development through exposure to newer trends, using appropriate technology to shape our resources they way they want to be…. successful…to both the organization as well as to themselves!

 

 

QUESTIONS: 

 

  What inputs can optimize learning? How would you like to attempt a presentation, and what support systems would you prefer, if at all? Why?       2.   How would you tailor training methodology to the peculiar needs of your team?  What, in the final diagnosis, is the need for development of your staff?
