Becoming Creative Super Learners at USM!


Looking forward to visiting Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) again and unleashing a new learning adventure to unlock the real 'Da Vinci Code' for creative super learning. I got 3 Hours (seminar/workshop) to do it (30 May, 2014)! The impossible is possible, Insya-Allah!

WARNING!

I am still discovering creative super learning at an alarming and disruptive rate! So, my insights, knowledge, skills (especially juggling) and opinions will continue to evolve as I discover and learn. And that is great news for people who want learn from or discuss with me this topic.



  

DESCRIPTION

Imagine if you could read a 200-page book in 20 minutes? In today’s information overloaded disruptive world driven increasingly by innovation, we are required more than ever to transform the way we learn and think in terms of speed and creativity.

In this 3-Hour interactive crash course, we will explore some of the things that we can do to stimulate and empower our brains and senses to be more focused, learn faster, and think more creatively. It fuses the latest in neuroscience about how the brain learns, technology, and instructional design to awaken and empower educators to design more effective and engaging learning content and environments.

The most important message is that our brains can be rewired to be ‘Creative Super Learners’ at any age.


LEARNING OUTCOMES

At the end of this workshop, you will  be able to:
  • Discuss how the brain learns.
  • Use at least 2 techniques to optimize your learning mindset and senses.
  • Use at least 3 techniques to increase your reading speed  with comprehension.
  • Use social curation tools to discover, collect, organize, and sharing learning resources. 
  • Use at least 2 techniques to improve your memory.
  • Use at least 2 tools to empower creative and critical thinking.

    Wa-Salamu Alaikum wrtwbt

    Dear Murtalakazaure,

    Thanks for the feedback and safe trip wishes (Insya-Allah everything goes well).

    Insya-Allah, we will meet one day :)

    Meeting online is not an issue, but F2F is more of a challenge.

    Challenges are made to be broken!

    All the best & Salams,

    Zaid

    Ok Mr Ali, thanks for your prompt response. Really meeting F2F is a challenge but my thinking was how we can arrange for you to come to MMU and share your vast knowledge and experience of ISD with us. Thank you once again.
