How is the third step in the 4-mat system, and is where you let people roll up their sleeves and experiment with what you have taught them. If you are doing a live seminar or workshop, this is where you would do a demo or exercise where they can experience the information first hand. Pretty simple and easy to understand right? But what if you are doing things via written or recorded media and not live?
You can assign a task, or have someone do something and then continue on with your material after they have had a chance to play around a bit. So let's put this into action...
Think about your material and what you are presenting, and ask yourself:
What can you have people do that would give them first hand experience of what you are teaching them?
What skills should they be able to walk away with after this segment?
With that in mind:
1. Take a few moments and make a list of the three most important skills that you want your audience to walk away with.
2. After you have your list, design an exercise so that they can experiment with the information and achieve the skill set that you identified in your first list.
After you have done that, come back to the blog and find out what to do next...
