 Exact what I was looking for! June 20, 2008

The book provided me with exact the information and suggestions I was looking for - clear text - clear information - easy to understand games - but level good enough to use for highly qualified adults - I put a few things straight into practice on two presentations - used both times different games and icebreakers - and response from participants on both occasions was great. I bought two books by error - handed one over to another course facilitator as a gift - and she is delighted with it as well.
If one is starting off or fed up with old games and icebreakers and is looking for suggestions, or ideas - this is the book to buy.

I had this series of books before - loaned them out at work and never got them back (go figure!). Happy to have found them again here.

I used a bunch of ideas from this book for my position in a student organization. A definite must for programs on dry material. It never hurts to have an ace up your sleeve, and this book is it!

I was expecting more. But it certainly lived up to its title. Maybe my expectations were a little to hight.I have yet to try any of the examples yet, but I am certainly waiting to try.

For any medium to advanced trainer, group leader, or presenter, this book does not raise any new methods of improving audience participation. In fact, the "cheese" factor is enough to choke even the most discriminating mouse.Having said that, if you're a beginner with little to no background in or exposure to group training, then this book may help give you a little head start to realize how to engage an audience through active participation. It's only because of the potential to aide a beginner that I rated this a 2. Otherwise, it's sitting with a lone star.
