So, how do you create training that has the most impact on your learners? The answer – engage every part of your learner’s brain. It’s also extremely unlikely your learners fit into one, single quadrant. Whole Brain® Thinking in eLearningĪs an organization delivering training, it’s unlikely you’ll know which learning style suits your learners – especially if it’s external learners like customers or partners. In turn, it makes your training more engaging, caters to all learners and increases their chance of success. This ensures that your learners are using the ‘stronger’ side of their brain, while also challenging and exercising the less dominant sides. Whole Brain® Thinking advises trainers to develop learning methods that exercise all areas of the brain where possible. It explains why some learners accelerate in certain areas and may struggle in others. While others just want the straight up facts. Some of us like to think outside the box, be creative. While everybody has these quadrants, it advocates that we all have a preferred way of thinking without even realizing it. Each quadrant represents a different part of the brain: Analytical, Practical, Relational, Experimental. What is Whole Brain® Thinking?ĭeveloped by Ned Herrmann, Whole Brain® Thinking divides the brain into four quadrants. Even training beginners can get insights and implement some of the practices of this theory. It can help you identify the best practices for training and make your eLearning much more impactful and engaging. Tremendously popular, it’s one of the most common approaches to learning. It focuses on the thinking preferences of different people and it aims to enlighten training professionals and learners on the nuances of the brain when learning. Whole Brain® Thinking is a theory that’s been around since the 1970’s. And of course, this could be hierarchical, so you could create a hierarchy of tags under a type and the entire hierarchy would only be visible when working with instances of the type.Emma O'Neill, Product Marketing Manager at LearnUpon If you create a tag as a child of a type thought, that tag would only be visible when working with instances of that type. Local Type Tags could be visualized in the plex as children of type thoughts. Obviously, these tags only make sense for instances of type Restaurant You don't want to see various cuisines in your tag list when you're assigning tags to a project at work. You couldn't use sub-types because a restaurant may feature multiple cuisines and may be open for brunch, lunch and dinner, etc. What part of town is the restaurant in? What type of cuisine? What time of day are they open? So your Restaurant type could have local tags like Cuisine->Mexican, Cuisine->Italian, Location->Downtown, Good For->Brunch, Good For->Dinner, etc. When you're trying to decide where to eat, you may consider various criteria. Another example might be instances of type Restaurant. I realize, in this example, the local tags could instead be sub-types of Person, but what if someone is both a Coworker and a Friend? Sub-types are useful for creating rigid hierarchies, but tags are much more flexible. I only want these tags to be visible when working with a Person instance. These tags would never be used in any context other than a Person instance, so I don't want my global tag list cluttered up with irrelevant tags. Examples might be "Friend", "Neighbor", "Coworker", "Client", etc. There are various attributes you could assign to a Person instance, which would only make sense in the context of the Person type.
