Happy Reviews

Perhaps a bit long.

The other courses had a lot more individual task and exercises which really helped me learn and apply my own thinking to the topics - this course was more of a listen and learn.

It could be better if all pre-course checks were done.

The start of the session was far too slow. We shouldn't have been asked to individually state our experience/aims of the course. We shouldn't have done the exercise next door with the pieces of paper. They both felt very pointless. The instructor said he wanted to gauge what we knew, but the course should have started with a task, then going round the room he would have been able to see speed/ability etc. After lunch improved, but before lunch was not informative at all. Having to leave the building to get food also wasted time.

Very good training but maybe would be better spilt into two as quite long to keep focused looking at screen.

1.It was a very important and useful training but the allocated time was too small. I would have preferred if the training was taught as face to face and broken into 2 sessions with assignment for practice before the next session.

It’s hard to tell at this stage how much I’ll get out of the course. It might not have been the right choice at this stage. I found the course material quite poor in terms of diversity and a little off putting as a result. Every single source was from a white male, bar one, which was a white female. Materials feels like they need to be updated a little.

Speaker spent a lot of time with her back to half the room :( totally felt excluded.

I really appreciated the practical application of methods but felt like the set up didn't help us to understand how or why we were going through those methods and what we would learn. I don't really understand much more about the philosophy or overall use case for LS. I also got really bored of using the same reflective structure for each activity although I much appreciated the inclusion of reflection - would be good to mix it up a bit. Appreciated the mix of people in the room and chance to experiment

It was a good course overall but it would have be more beneficial to me to have more practical exercises.
