    La formation sans... Vidéo

    La formation sans... Vidéo

    Peut-on encore enseigner ou former sans utiliser la vidéo lorsque :

    • 83 % des personnes interrogées préfèrent regarder une vidéo qu’un autre média pour apprendre
    • YouTube est la première plateforme d’apprentissage au monde
    • 80 % de l'activité de formation en ligne consiste à regarder des contenus audiovisuels ?

    Et surtout, comment concevoir une bonne vidéo pour enseigner, former ou apprendre ?


    Si la question est simple, la réponse relève d’une certaine complexité. Entre les considérations pédagogiques, les principes multimédias, les usages actuels des apprenant·e·s ou encore les dimensions techniques, la vidéo est l’un des outils pédagogiques les plus difficiles à appréhender pour les enseigant·e·s et formateurs·rices.


    Dans cet épisode, nous discutons de nos usages des ressources audiovisuelles pédagogiques – en tant qu’apprenants et formateurs – ainsi que de nos pratiques de conception (pré-production, production, prost-production et diffusion).


    Que vous soyez formateur·rice vidéaste amateur·rice ou plus expérimenté·e, vous découvrirez des méthodologies, outils et ressources pour prendre du recul sur vos productions actuelles ou enrichir vos futures ressources audiovisuelles pédagogiques.

    Experimenting with Experiential Learning with Romy Alexandra - EP 13

    Experimenting with Experiential Learning with Romy Alexandra - EP 13

    In this episode, Beth and facilitator Romy Alexandra explore the topic of experiential learning. But they don't just talk about experiential learning, they actually do it! Romy and Beth each facilitate the other through several sense-based activities, then reflect on the experience. No matter where you are when you listen to this episode, you're invited to fully engage in this "experiment" in experiential learning.

    Special notes:

    • Beth realized as she was playing a song during recording that she would break copyright if she aired the episode that way. So you'll hear a substitute song and an explanatory voiceover from Beth in that section. If you would like to hear the actual song Beth played for Romy, listen to Falling Slowly by Glen Hansard via the link below.
    • If you would like to share back with Romy and Beth a reflection or next step after your engagement with this episode, you are invited to make a comment on the Episode 13 post at facilitatingonpurpose.com.

    Develop the skills of your people with Malcolm Taylor

    Develop the skills of your people with Malcolm Taylor

    Episode summary

    Today we are joined by Malcom Taylor, the Senior People Development Manager at Met Office UK, where we explore the practices of a community of practitioners in a public sector organisation. The Met Office has established the People Framework as a way to support the learning and development of their staff. It was a fascinating conversation where we also delved into the role of openness and trust, how to be seen as more than just a training department, what makes a ‘Good Met Office Citizen’, and Conole’s 7 Cs of learning.

    About Malcolm 

    Malcolm brings over 20 years’ experience working in the field of Human Resources and Learning & Development, and he is driven by a passion for learning. At the Met Office, Malcolm is currently the Senior People Development Manager, and he established a number of communities with practice as well as his learning tactics.

    Key takeaways:

    • The People Framework is a tool developed by the Met Office to support the learning and development of their staff. It is divided into three segments: personal effectiveness, corporate effectiveness, and professional effectiveness.
    • The Community of Practice Manager acts as a guiding influence and is not tied to any particular community. The person under this role at the Met Office has built a maturity model to help develop the impact of the People Framework.
    • The community of practice offers a range of activities including specialist group channels in Teams, and the platform is a great way to connect people that are geographically far apart. They also invite external speakers to speak on webinars, where they get about 60 - 70% of registrants attending recorded or live.

    Segmented time stamps:

    • [01:10] Why the Met Office established the People Framework
    • [04:55] The current leaders and their backgrounds
    • [06:34] Guiding the professional leaders
    • [09:39] The role of a Community of Practice Manager
    • [10:19] Creating content for the community of practice
    • [12:28] Building a safe environment
    • [16:41] Evaluating the impact of the community of practice
