Abstract |
Nearly all training to date in waste minization has been based on lectures and case studies, all of which are more properly termed education. We found that, aside from role plays and discussions, an exercise approach such as the Green Square Game is a more effective training tool. It's a fun exercise and we believe that people who have fun while learning are more likely to retain what they've learned. We are employing the principle that hands-on training allows trainees to become participants rather than observers. We determined that the regulatory audience who will participate in this exercise may not be familiar with what it is like to function in an industrial setting. With their enhanced sense of an industrial setting and knowledge of how waste is generated, we believe these participants will be more effective in promoting waste minimization in their respective positions. |
