The trainers/ instructors gave us the theoretical information that we needed to effectively create and implement lessons appropriate for 21st-century learning styles. Much of the information presented were demonstrated with a practical, hands-on approach that were engaged the attendees and gave them an idea what it was like to participate in collaborative and creative activities. Each module was attempt to incorporate the existing knowledge and experience of the trainees in an effort to create a helpful learning environment. As part of an individual project each trainee produced several of their own lesson materials according to their backgrounds and needs. The trainer/ instructor presented information, guided us- the trainees through the practical components, and offer feedback and suggestions. An interactive communicative approach was applied, which provided participants with experiential learning. Participants developed their fluency through discussion about current affairs and topics of general interest. Input sessions were in the form of hands-on workshops or discussions for fluency work, and involve brainstorming, analysis, problem-solving, and roleplay, both in pair-work & group work. Participants were actively involved in the sessions to maximize their learning and to experience activities from their learners’ point of view.
