If only more teachers and trainers read this.

I myself could learn something from this:

5) Do group exercises whenever possible, no matter what you’ve heard.

I’ve heard every excuse, “Adults don’t like to do group exercises.” or “Professional developers don’t like to do group exercises.” or “People don’t like to do group exercises when they’re paying big bucks to be here.” or “People from outside the US don’t like to do group exercises… “. They’re all bulls***. There is a huge social component to learning, regardless of how much we try to eliminate it in the classroom. There’s a way to do interactive group exercises that works surprisingly well, and is usually quite easy.
