Games from the Lessons

I have been delivering Human Factors training for a while and now after attending the DACE program, suddenly I felt that I have been stagnant for some time. As in have been doing the same presentation for so many time that I am getting bored.

Looks like its time to up the game level and go for something that it totally different.

I have been getting some inspirations while attending my part-time course. The games the trainers used in class is a good reference point for us to use in our class. So in the few blogs, I will try to record down some of these game sand see how I can use them in my class.

I am not an inventor, I just know how to adapt real well, real fast.

Anyway, here are some the games I can recall:

1. Inner and Outer Circle
  • The class forms 2 circles (inner and outer) when every one in the inner circle will have one from the outer circle facing him. The trainer starts by asking a question about what happened in the last lesson and we will have to talk it out to each other. Once done, we will rotate and the questions will comes again.
  • This kind of peer learning is very good especially in the start or end of the session. Cause that is the time where we can retain more.


2. Game show
  • Each team is given papers to write down a respond. The trainer will ask questions and we will raise the corresponding respond for our team's ans. The trainer will subsequently records the points on the chart.
  • What I like about this is when the train ask us to explain our ans. Why this respond ? This makes us think and talk it out.
