Show Notes

Lisa Christensen returns to the show to discuss a simple, yet extremely effective learning support technique that more people beyond the learning profession should learn and master: scaffolding. We discuss what scaffolding is, why it’s important, why it matters to your organization, and practical examples of scaffolding in our everyday lives.
