Learning that LASTS

L = Learner Centered
A = Action with Reflection
S = Solving problems
T = Teamwork
S = Self discovery and self direction

The LtL workshop is an intensive course for people who want to improve their teaching skills for adult learners of various cultures, learning styles, experiences, and educational backgrounds. It is based on the work of teachers such as Jane Vella, Roland Walker, Paulo Freire, Malcolm Knowles and Kurt Lewin.

May 22 - 26 was an awesome week for us at BRTC as we successfully went through another learning that LASTS event. LtL is one of my favourite workshops because everyone who takes it goes back knowing very well that something is going to change in the way they teach.

At learning that LASTS, every participant always come alive at the end of workshop and appreciate their being at the workshop. At the start we always have their expectations posted and by the end, most if not all those expectations are usually met.

LtL = Dialogue Education = Adult Education and it means change

For me personally, it was particularly helpful because at the end, I was certified as a LtL lead trainer. This is a very good opportunity for me to continue to use my LtL skills and pass them to others.
