It puts the responsibility for learning back on the participant. So many times I see trainers assuming that role and allowing the participants to be passive. Thanks for you insight.

What do YOU think?” Often times, a question is a thinly veiled need to make a statement or to process aloud. By asking the participant what they were thinking it is in essence giving permission for him/her to share his/her view.
