It is time to review the schedule for the placement of your session in the AAACE Agenda. This is the final draft of the Schedule. When you look up your name, use the detail listing to check what days/times you asked to be placed. This is a huge program and we can accommodate necessary changes in day and time now, but may not be able to do so after September 1, 2013 except in emergencies. Please carefully check your placement and send any requests to Ginger Phillips, AAACE Conference Planner with AAACE Session Change Request in the subject line. We will respond to your email, but it may take us up to a week to do so. Thanks for your help in "fine tuning" this agenda!
Through the Learner’s Lens: How Facilitators Create Trust in Learning Environments
Type of Presentation
Concurrent Session (45 minutes)
Session Abstract
Facilitators utilize elements of trust within learning environments. In this interactive session, we will share recently completed research that can help educators identify how trust occurs in learning settings.
Target Audience
Facilitators of adults that value learner-responsive teaching are the target audience of this session. Professionals and practitioners from business, education, law enforcement, and health care may also find the session beneficial as it can inform their practice.
Learning Outcomes
Following this session, participants will possess a better understanding of their individual level of trust as a facilitator and insight about of the importance of trust in the learning experiences. In addition, participants will be able to ask themselves “what does trust currently look like in my learning environment?” and “what would I like it to look like in future learning experiences?”
Session Description
Trust can be a imperative determinant of success in business, professional, and personal relationships. During this session, participants will contribute to a culture of trust that adds to learning and productivity. An instrument that was used for research will be introduced for implementation in practice. The session discussion could help participants use personal reflection to inform and advance their level of trust in individual practice and can provide the opportunity for participants to develop a picture of trust in their current learning setting. Additionally, participants will be invited to engage in a discussion of what optimal trust in a learning environment looks like from both the learner and facilitator points of view. This session may enable participants to enhance the reputation of the institutions they serve.
Efforts are made to try to schedule sessions on the day preferred by the Primary Presenter, though this cannot be guaranteed. Please check your preference.
