Living the Learning:
Design airtight activities that lead participants to the right conclusions with minimal re-directing
Facilitate substantive sharing time that allows participants to draw the conclusion from the activity
Frame the participants’ conclusions with the formal vocabulary of the associated principles so that participants share one common language
Provide ample opportunities for participants to reflect and to apply their learning in simulated and real-world experiences

Comparison of Three Approaches to Adult PD:
Component
Lecture (Sage on Stage)
Guided Practice(I do, we do, you do)
Living the Learning(AA, R, S, F, A)
Format Formal presentation on core principles
Question & Answer
I do: Formal presentation on core principles
We do: Shared presenter-participant activity modeling the core principles
You do: Application: try it on your own
Activity sparks learning
Facilitated Sharing Framing: formal
language around participants’ sharing
Reflection Application: put it
into practiceApprox. Leader Talk
90-95% 40-50% 15-30%
Learning Beliefs
We learn best by listening to the expert on the topic
We learn best by listening to the expert and then having a chance to apply it
We learn best by generating the knowledge through experience and then applying it to our context
Limitation
Adults retain 5-10% of what they hear
Leader does the heavy cognitive work: participants imitate but don’t build their own conclusions, limiting investment & retention
Requires precisely built activities that lead to the proper conclusions; takes far more time to plan & more work to facilitate
Based on Leverage Leadership by Paul Bambrick-Santoyo
CORE IDEA
If you want to get good at a skill, you have to implement it yourself.
Participants – not the presenter – need to do the heavy lifting in a
workshop.
Based on Leverage Leadership by Paul Bambrick-Santoyo
Four Common Airtight Activities:
Video Clips of Teaching/Learning Movie Clips Case Studies (written) Role Plays/Simulations (acted)
Based on Leverage Leadership by Paul Bambrick-Santoyo
Airtight Activities, Part I – Video Clips:
What are all the actions Aja takes in leading the session?

Based on Leverage Leadership by Paul Bambrick-Santoyo
Airtight Activities, Part I – Video Clips:
During her PD workshop, what does Aja do after showing a video clip?
Based on Leverage Leadership by Paul Bambrick-Santoyo
Video Clips – How to Use Them Effectively:
Precise Question(s)Keep Video Clips ShortFollow Video Clips with a Think-Pair-Share (R-S)
Based on Leverage Leadership by Paul Bambrick-Santoyo
Reflection – Core Principles:
Keep it Brief• Most participants only need 1-3
minutes to reflect on a given topic
Have a Place to Write• Provide participants with a
colorful handout where they can record all reflections

Leading Large Group Sharing:

How does she lead participants to the right conclusions?
Based on Leverage Leadership by Paul Bambrick-Santoyo
Leading Large Group Sharing:
Start from the End Goal• Identify what you want the participants to say
during the sharing
Ask Questions that Lead Participants to that Goal• Precisely word the questions to guide the
participants to the big ideas• Think volleyball, not ping pong• Celebrate good answers!
