"PLAYBACK should be on every trainer's bookshelf in order to expand
their repertoire of training techniques. It is cheap enough, creative
enough, self-effacing, but well founded."
Billie Taylor, Training and Development
-
"PLAYBACK is very practical, attractively presented and easy to read"
Bill Roberts, Careers Guidance Today
-
"The number and range of review methods discussed are impressive."
Jeffrey Gold in Education and Training
-
"PLAYBACK is a useful handbook for trainers in industry, youth workers, teachers, youth leaders and activity instructors"
The Award Journal
-
"PLAYBACK is principally written for those working with young people. But review activity is ageless. It is also interdisciplinary. Hence there is much of practical value, not least the excellent bibliography, for anyone involved in development activity where review is an integral feature. At £7.99 it represents a resource of considerable value."
Jeffrey Gold in Education and Training
-
"PLAYBACK offers more than fifty techniques to put reviewing into practice without panicking. It also describes how activity-based learning can stimulate and support personal and social development, and make an activity an even richer experience."
The Award Journal
-
"PLAYBACK is a treasure trove of group processes to use when debriefing an activity and can give the hackneyed discussion session a life of its own, and certainly will make the activity more memorable."
Billie Taylor, Training and Development
-
Following a trainer-training course that used techniques from Playback:
"The course has definitely altered my reviewing perspective.
Before the course I had a copy of PLAYBACK but did not use the
ideas. After the course having seen those ideas done live I now
find it easier to use the book and apply the ideas to work."
Andi Roberts
