🖐🏽 Key Takeaways:
Your audience is the key to an effective and useful learning design. If you don't know who you're designing for, your LX is for no one but yourself.
Practice and feedback = learning. Feedback can come in many forms, but the best feedback is one that allows learners to fail. You can tell someone the correct answer, but even better is providing a robust explanation...and the best is letting someone "experience" the consequences of applying their knowledge or making a decision.
Learning is a campaign means that you're not designing for a one-shot intervention with your learners. Instead, you should strive to keep learning alive long after your workshop or course.
