Three and Four-Day Quality Learning Seminars

Putting Langford Learning Principles to Work

The intensive Three or Four Day Langford Learning Seminar introduces Quality Learning principles, history, tools, and applications to learning. Participants will gain the vision, purpose, and capacity for quality implementation in classrooms, schools, and learning organizations.

The Three or Four Day Seminar foundation is grounded in implementing the Deming SoPK (System of Profound Knowledge) in learning organizations.

Dr. Deming’s System of Profound Knowledge consists of:

• Theory of Knowledge
• Appreciation for a System
• Understanding Variation
• Psychology

The seminars also incorporate the Probletunity Improvement PDSA Process, Neuroscience, Intrinsic Motivation, current learning theories, teaming concepts, and quality improvement techniques and tools. Practical uses of technology to improve learning environments is discussed and demonstrated.

Langford Learning builds upon the SoPK foundation to apply statistical thinking, human interaction techniques, and philosophies of Quality Improvement to the learning environment.

David P. Langford always facilitates the seminar. Mr. Langford will provide case histories that illustrate the successes and pitfalls associated with implementing quality improvement methods in education, government, and corporate environments.

Participants will learn:

• New ways to strengthen and build the relationship between learner and facilitator.
• How to create an educational environment where learners are responsible for learning
• How to build systems that enable learners to make choices and give them experience in self-evaluation
• How to develop and maintain intrinsic motivation for learning.
