Competition Minus 4 Days
Building the workshop, induction and the experts expert
It’s a relief to listen to a teacher who not only can instruct a class representating nearly every culture on Earth, but also in a non-native, second language. Introducing Markus Ruben Wiese from Leipzig, Germany — Worldskills’ Graphic Design Chief Expert in Abu Dhabi.
Today he guided a large group of newbies through the basics and underscored each point with a genuine, authentic fair competition focus.
He also completed the day with one of the best recaps I’ve ever witnessed:
- Hand wrote what had been achieved during the day.
- Asked for feedback and questioned the group “did you get what you needed...?”
- Posed the question—“What about the rules?”
- Held aloft — “and I have my presentation printed out”
- And tomorrow we will continue with ...
- Pause for effect, “How do you feel about that?”
- Reflected on the fact that most of the experts took mandatory assessment training... He asked “was it okay? Did you feel uncomfortable?”
- “You have the opportunity to do it again tomorrow”... Any comments on that?
- And then the kicker, “please be all on time (8:45AM) or we will have to start earlier the following day...”
- Deftly wrapped it in a bow tie, staying around for another hour for further questions or some more assessment examination practice...
