Talk to the Elephant: Design Learning for Behavior Change by Julie Dirksen
Talk to the Elephant: Design Learning for Behavior Change shows you how to add critical tools to your learning design toolbox to affect behavior change. You'll find out how to use frameworks and strategies from behavioral science to help you research and analyze challenges, feel more confident that you're solving the right problem, and design and test solutions that can help people with difficult behavior changes.
By the end of this book, you'll be able to:
-
Map the change journey of your learners and identify their path
-
Assess and clearly communicate the value of the change
-
Use motivation models to better understand what learners really care about
-
Utilize evidence-based models like the COM-B Model to analyze behavior-change challenges
-
Use a diagnostic checklist to determine whether you actually have a training problem
-
Identify behavior-change techniques to address your specific challenges
The Art and Science of Training by Elaine Biech
Elaine Biech, one of the most highly regarded names in talent development, has set out to identify the perfect blend of content mastery and audience insight. The result is this highly informative book. The Art and Science of Training presents the science for learning and development, but it also emphasizes that training success lies in knowing what to do when things don't go as planned.
Discover how top facilitators always put learners first, even when faced with exceptions to the rule—the unwilling learner, the uninformed supervisor, the inappropriate delivery medium, or the unmanageable performance challenge. And learn why you must understand people, not only content, to ensure consistently exceptional learning experiences.
Science is both a body of knowledge and a process. Art is the expression of creativity and imagination. Where they intersect is the best way to help others learn and grow.
