Who’d be interested in corporate training built around the principles of Dungeons and Dragons? ❓🎲
I’m always searching for creative ways to make instructor-led training more engaging and interactive. One surprising source of inspiration that I’ve found is the game Dungeons and Dragons (D&D). With all the talk of AI, augmented and virtual reality in training 🤖👓💻, I’d like to shift to pen and paper for a moment. By incorporating some of the principles of D&D into our training sessions, you can create a more immersive and engaging learning experience for our participants. Here are a few thoughts on incorporating D&D principles into your training sessions:
1️⃣ Create a storyline: Just like in a D&D game, you can create a storyline for your training session. This can help to create a more immersive experience for participants and make the content more memorable.
2️⃣ Use character creation: Allow participants to create their own characters that are relevant to the training topic. This can help them to identify with the content and feel more invested in the training.
3️⃣ Encourage role-playing: In D&D, players take on different roles and interact with each other in character. Encouraging role-playing in your training sessions can help to make the content more relatable and encourage active participation.
4️⃣ Use a quest or mission structure: Create a quest or mission that participants need to complete as part of the training session. This can help to make the training more engaging and interactive.
5️⃣ Incorporate dice or cards (chance): In D&D, dice rolls determine the success or failure of actions. Incorporating dice or chance into your training sessions can help to create a sense of excitement and unpredictability.
By incorporating these principles of D&D into your training sessions, you may just stumble upon a more immersive and engaging learning experience for your participants. Remember, the key is to be creative and find ways to make the content more relatable and memorable. Let’s continue to explore new and innovative ways to make our training sessions more effective and engaging! 🚀📈🤩
