Choosing Content

From the course:

We should be teaching half as much in twice the
time.
When we become paralyzed because there is "so much content that needs to be
covered," we often opt for too much what and too little engagement. Decide carefully: choose the most meaningful
content for the particular learners. Remembering if we engage learners with
their success in understanding the critical content we choose, they are more
likely to open themselves to deeper learning at the event and even continue to
explore further content on their own.

What do they need to explore with us and others in the room
and what can they do on their own with support, guidance and encouragement?
