Hungry for ideas  2008-07-15
This book is easy to read and full of important ideas for learning in a classroom setting. Great activities - easy to prepare and complete. The neat thing here is that the book is interactive and graphic, helping the reader to orient him/herself.
Templates for lecture segments help organize the material you are presenting. The training map is also very useful because it dissects training functions into steps. Good Buy!
Great Help!! 2007-12-14
If you are a trainer, you got to have this book. I have used many of the strategies from the book already with high success rate. Get it. You won't rtegret it.
For novices  2007-09-28
I looked forward with anticipation to gathering some great tips to add to my training repetoire. Unfortunately, I found the book to be incredibly repetitious and elementary. How many different ways can one put ideas on a sticky note and share with the person beside them? A disappointment.
Fun, effective and complete! 2007-08-18
The first time I used the ideas presented in Sharon's book in a training, I received fantastic feedback!
The active learning strategies are quick, fun, and surprisingly effective.
As both a trainer and a high school teacher, I particularly appreciate the holistic "Learning Compass" idea which ensures the audience will connect to, remember, and use the new material.
The Ten-Minute Trainer is a complete, consistent, and clear handbook that will guide a presenter or teacher into providing rich, effective, and meaningful trainings.
Good material  2007-07-13
Bowman's book is a good resource for teachers and presenters alike. Some of the material is highly usable for teachers but some is less so. I did like the fact that the book explains that it was meant to be used as each person needs it. If you are a developed and experienced presenter/ teacher, it encourages you to skip the introductory stuff and move on to the more advanced material. For that alone, the author gained a great deal of credibility from me from the first time I opened the book.
