Let's face it, great courses have amazing, engaging openers that engage their audience and prepare them to learn. The question becomes, how do you do that, and is there an easy template to follow that will make effective learnings easier and faster to design? The great news is YES, there is a technique that can help you stay focused and it's called V.O.A.A.R. VOAAR is an acronym for Value, Objective, Agenda, Application and Review and if you follow this structure in your learning opener, you will have a far more effective and enriching experience for your audience. This week the NERDS take a deep dive into the VOAAR and discuss great ways to apply it in your course designs and relevant techniques that will grab your audience and keep them engaged.
