A Learning Experience for Those Concerned with Canadian Community Colleges A CANADIAN COMMUNITY COLLEGES INSTITUTE SEMINAR 1975 CANADIAN PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOP OF THE CANADIAN COMMUNITY COLLEGES INSTITUTE The Method The Workshop assumes that learning is Most meaningful and lasting when it most closely meets personal learning needs# The group generates its own dynamic model through which per- sonal and group needs and resources are identified and organized to create person-centered learning experiences. Permanent resident staff, aside from administrative personnel, consist of highly qualified animators who func- tion as catalysts in the learning-need/ learning-resource process. The anima- tors, skilled in group dynamics and the learning process, help identify not only those resources already pro- vided for, but the resources among the participants that can best serve their own personal and professional needs.
