How to support learners to develop the competence to deal with ambiguity and chaos and think autonomously? There is a big tendency to put learning into steps and plans while we know by now that learning is not a linear process. Forcing learners into structured step-by-step roads doesn’t help and denies the organic way in which human being think and create. But how to get away from this thinking when we plan a training course, a youth exchange or a mentoring process? How to plan an organic learning process? We live in a complex and rapidly changing world where we need people who don’t fear change but embrace it. Creativity is needed more then ever. How to support people to find their own creativity and to take it serious? How to help people to think out of the box? How to motivate people to be stupid and to make mistakes? The main questions that we came up till now. We are sure there are much more.
Objectives of the course
• To support participants to identify their own ‘natural’ way of learning;
• To support participants to further develop and broaden their facilitation, mentoring and coaching- capacities;
• To explore how creativity, ‘chaos’ and unconventional environments can provoke new perceptions about (self-directed) learning;
• To create a challenging non-linear learning environment to provoke divergent and creative thinking;
• To share theories and concepts on learning and facilitation of learning;
• To explore the possibilities to apply ‘new learning’ in the different actions of the Youth in Action programme.
