Compendium of Icebreakers Volume 2 Connections: 125 Activities for Faultless Training - Binder/Book

The activities are grouped under five critical points of contact trainers have with participants:

• Making Contact Before the Workshop includes activities a trainer can do after the participants are identified or selected.
• Saying Hello at the Beginning of the Workshop presents activities for introducing the trainer, clarifying objectives and expectations, helping participants get better acquainted and leading warm-up activities
• Making Transitions Within the Workshop offers activities for building on what participants have learned from the workshop and one another.
• Saying Goodbye at the End of the Workshop focuses on activities that help participants review what has been learned, develop a plan of action, celebrate and receive awards.
• Following Up After the Workshop includes strategies for reinforcing what participants have learned and ensuring continuous learning.

Based on the principles of accelerated and adult learning, the activities have sound objectives. But they are also fun. Some utilize all the senses. Many get participants on their feet and moving around. Others encourage participants to reveal what they already know and apply what they learn.

The activities are formatted for easy use with clearly marked objectives, best occasion to use them, group size, estimated time equipment and supplies needed and materials. Many of the activities have ready-to-use handouts.
