"I recommend Roger's training events highly, and especially applaud his ability to make us learn how to work with different groups of people."

About this guide

Do you help others learn? Would they benefit from a more participatory approach to learning? Would you like active learning to be even more engaging, dynamic and effective? Then please read on.

Fresh and original writing about experience-based learning (theory and practice) has been published here at reviewing.co.uk since 1997. Here you will find many tools and tips for facilitating active learning and development. By placing these reviewing tools in the hands of learners your reviews will engage all learning styles and encourage full participation.

Dull meetings and boring reviews are an expensive waste of time. Be more experimental and more experiential. Introduce more active learning: harnessing everyone's thoughts and energies is time well spent.

Effective reviewing is a valuable skill for lifelong learning. Let's make it more enterprising, more inclusive, more empowering and more energising!

To explore this site, pick a search tool [top right] or choose a topic from the margins. The red R brings you home to this page. The runner that's me! (top or bottom right) takes you to the search centre. You will discover lots of practical tips, articles, book extracts, links, research and resources about experiential learning. All free! [unless you want to buy a new or used book]

If you are looking for live training events (anywhere on this shrinking planet) check the details of my trainer-training workshops or what customers have said about them. Or enquire by email to roger@reviewing.co.uk

Don't just do it - actively review it!
