  1. For my own individual learning To help others in “formal”

    learning To coach or mentor For work environments where learning is key Anytime I want to set conditions for learning
  2. Keep it Alive! Do it for Real Setting First Start

    Obvious, Stay Obvious Focus on Flow
  3. “Keep it ALIVE” DIAL Human Metrics: Watch for Body Language,

    Facial Expressions, Emotional Quality, Degree of Engagement, Quality of Self-Organizing for Learning Low Alive • Little/No eye contact • Boredom • Disengagement Highly Alive • Eyes wide open • Laughter • Tears • Play • Full Engagement
  4. “Do it for Real” DIAL Skill-building Metrics: Watch for Doing,

    Attention to attaining fluency, Expanding capacity, Increasing capability Low Fluency • Waiting to Learn • Abstractions • Questions re: objections, ‘what ifs?’ & edge cases • Introductions & Exposure to… High Fluency • Fully embodied experience • Implementing • Practicing skilled action • Performing is its own justification
  5. “Setting First” DIAL Learning Environment Metrics: Watch for efficacy in

    underpinning other “Rules” Poor Setting • Inhibits Aliveness, Fluency, Signal, or Focus • Creates barriers to learning Rich Setting • Reinforces Aliveness, Fluency, Signal, & Focus • Drives learning
  6. ✦ How can I improve the setting to drive and

    strengthen aliveness, fluency, signal, and flow?
  7. “Start Obvious, Stay Obvious” DIAL Signal to Noise Metrics: Signal

    Strength, Watch for Degree of Friction, Hesitation, Confusion, Ambiguity, Clarity High Signal • Action with regular, sequential “Aha’s” • Full attention • Spontaneous innovation • High confidence • High trust • Questions about safety, performance • Concerns for precision, correctness • Distractions • Confusion • Caution, Hesitations High Noise
  8. ✦ How can I boost the signal and make it

    more obvious? ✦ How can I add clarity and remove confusion, friction, hesitations, ambiguities, & distractions?
  9. “Focus on Flow” DIAL “Bite-sized” Skill Metrics: Watch for small

    enough to easily consume + big enough to hold interest; Constructive sequence Un-Focused • Too small = boring • Too big = overwhelming • Questions off topic • Drowning in detail Right Focus • Largest “bite” learner can easily absorb & find interesting • Questions about the next “bite” • Progressive, increasing proficiency Bored Panic/ Overwhelm Just right
