Why Active Learning Works:

As adults we interpret information in a way that is relevant to our individual needs. Communicating often complex business issues in an engaging, informal and visual way, with active involvement, gives people the opportunity to discover information and assimilate it with their own life experiences.

Apart from greater retention, it also delivers alignment and buy-in which is critical in the implementation of change and the degree of ownership that people feel toward it.

We learn best when we...

• Come to our own conclusions
• Visualise concepts
• Question and interact within small groups
• Engage in a process that is fun and stimulating
• Sharing the knowledge of peers and co-workers
• Explore cause and effect relationships

The success of BigPicture Learning is built upon this theory..... Combining visual interpretations of the business issue with discussion and the sharing of ideas within a small group promotes insight and understanding and for many people unlocks the 'ah-hah' factor where connections are made and real learning takes place.
