16 week course for young adults to enter the work force Each week = 7 hours/day 5 days a week

0.0 Starting your learning

Students own their learning

Begin each training session with a review of the learning plan.

 Using morning messages to start the day

Start the class by first breaking up the class into teams of 6-9 people.  The learning will progress in order of starting at unit 1.0 thru 9.0.  The team members are to read the FLIP pages prior to the class.  The goal is to get the students to begin self-learning.  When looking at the your learning , it is best to have a learning buddy studying with you. 
 
We will use a peer learning process to learn our material.
How do we pick and use a learning buddy to support our learning.  Each of us is a mentor to one of our team mates.
