Sharing Your Good Ideas: A Workshop Facilitator's Handbook

This book is specifically focused towards teachers who conduct workshops but I found it useful for anyone who is in charge of running a workshop or making presentations to adults. It differs from most manuals intended to train the trainer, because there isn't a set formula for an effective workshop but ideas that any facilitator can use no matter what their subject or style of presentation. I especially found the appendix useful with forms that could be removed and copied just as they are. I immediately used the Evaluation Form to hand out to participants at the end of the session and a self-evaluation for me to use to record what worked and what didn't. Of all the books I bought and read when I spent a summer conducting public relations workshops, this book, intended for teachers, turned out to be the most useful of all.
