Centre for Peace and Justice (CPJ) of BRAC University has organised a series of ‘Women Entrepreneurship Training’ for female students of Jatiya Kabi Kazi Nazrul Islam University (JKKNIU) as a part of ‘Empowered Women, Peaceful Communities’ project with support from UN Women, Bangladesh. A total of 150 female students from various departments of JKKNIU will get this training on entrepreneurship skills under this project. The trainings are being conducted at BRAC Learning Centre (BLC), Mymensingh during the month of November and December 2018.
Under the training, female students are identifying various issues related to their upbringing, achievements, failures, as well as some bigger issues related to inclusiveness, and cohesion in the society at large under the title of “Rivers of Life”. This training motivates and trains students to design business plans to address some of these issues through a social business.
This training consists of innovation workshop and business planning boot camp following a learning by doing approach. It aims to improve understanding about entrepreneurship skills and components of business through which the participants will be skilled to develop socially responsible entrepreneurial ideas. At the end of the training, the business plans will be reviewed and the best two will be chosen to provide seed funding so that they can start their business. They will also be provided with mentoring support during the initial months of their new business.
Weekend Training about Self-directed learning in a (too) complex world.
Learning is a lifelong challenge. This challenge has been getting more and more complicated recently. Somebody would say, a more complex world is responsible for that, and we would agree. Competencies are a new trend and the professional market speaks about them around-the-clock. Somebody would say, it’s unknown which competencies will be really up-to-date in 10 years and we would agree, but only partially.
How can we actually gain and strengthen competencies we need as individuals, citizens, people, employees, freelancers or founders? Which concrete instruments can we use instead of being confronted with a too general “learning by doing” attitude? Which competency model is making sense for you and how can you organize an effective and enjoyable learning journey in which you are your own guide?

- Tricks of Influence - 7 Biases and Psychological Artistry -
September 2012
Hi
A key question for you is what do you think moves people to change behaviour? What are the 7 key biases that we all have which lie behind making decisions and choices?
Being able to answer these questions means understanding influence and decision making processes. Influence is the driving force for us making the most of our resources.
. Introduction
. Choices - The 7 Cognitive Biases
. Standing Out From Countless Distractions
. A Better Show-reel
. Sleight of Mind Set Workshops

The ability to influence, appear to be able to dictate and predetermine people's choices and actions lie behind much that we cover in our SMS workshops. We're now very excited to be able to offer to you a number of open workshops dedicated to showing you mind magic and psychological artistry and how to apply it to what you do. We call this these the Sleight of Mind Set Workshops (click here for more information) or visit mindsways.com/SMS/
The ideas and material in this workshop is designed to reinforce and expand upon your delivery and interventions. Following on from the recent successes we are now holding the SMS workshops in Birmingham, Bath, Glasgow and London during November.
CHOICES - THE 7 COGNITIVE BIASES
Our choices are driven by our cognitive biases, 7 of the most important ones that we make use of in Psychological Artistry are:
Availability bias
Conformational bias
Illusion of control
Clustering or patterning fallacies
The Forer effect
Anchoring
Framing effect
There are many more, but understanding just these 7 gives us massive insights on our own decision making processes and also makes a large impact on how we influence other people's decisions and choices. In addition to these other biases come into play that have an impact on our lives and business. Some of these are:
Distinction bias
Egocentric bias
Information bias
Belief bias
We use to psychological artistry to both illustrate and understand these processes in a non threatening yet challenging way.
Mind Magic uses these and other techniques to give you the appearance of being able to accurately direct, dictate and influence people's choices. Being able to apply these techniques and ideas, as well as carry out these effects, increases your understanding of the psychological forces and shows others that you work with them.
These forces have real and practical impact on our lives daily. The SMS day uses mind magic as a lens to focus and clearly illustrate these psychological biases, whilst at the same time equipping you with an approach that is entertaining and engaging. This can prove a powerful way to engage a variety of people.
STANDING OUT FROM THE COUNTLESS DISTRACTIONS
With countless distractions coming at us from all angles, we must be able to stand out from the crowd, grab attention and more importantly, be able to hold attention. The skills and techniques that are embedded within Psychological Artistry are designed to do just that. I have coached and trained with this approach and found that through this, many areas can be dealt with, such as:
Developing confidence
Communication skills
Understanding behaviours
Biases ( social and cognitive)
How we experience the world
Self expression
Thinking skills
We are about uncovering the patterns of human behaviour whilst being
Entertained
Fascinated
Mystified
Enlightened
A BETTER SHOW-REEL
"To win more pitches, you need a better show-reel." John Hegarty - Hegarty on Advertising
We are looking to add to your "show-reel" by teaching you these techniques, routines and effects. A warning though, they must be treated like the special effects we see in films. They are there to enhance and illustrate what you do. A movie that is all special effects and no story makes for a boring film. Sometimes the best special effects are invisible. You will learn to use the Psychological Artistry toolbox of special effects to enhance and illustrate what you deliver.
SLEIGHT OF MIND SET WORKSHOPS
On these days, you will follow us down a path that will capture your imagination, giving you a complete skill set of astonishment, amazement and wonder. You will experience the worlds of Psychological Artistry, Neuroscience, Smart Thinking, Stagecraft and Magic, as well as partake in an experience that defies and twists logic and scientific understanding.
The day will challenge you to think about your delivery in entirely different ways. You will uncover your ability to step out of the logical box and view what you do from an entirely new perspective.
These workshops are all about enabling you to learn, appreciate and apply mind magic and psychological artistry to what you do. The approach is not traditional, but that is where its strength lies, particularly when advertising and adding value to others.
The programme includes two packs of material, the SNT (Show Not Tell) kit and the SMS (Sleight of Mind Set) pack; these include 20 discrete routines, ideas and techniques that allow you to deliver what you learn. The material here is not readily available but is assembled in packs ready for you to take away and use.
We are engaged with a wide range of people and organisations, but all of them have one thing in common; they are all people who work with people. They all want to increase their performance; they are all searching for methods to improve what they do, they are all seeking something different. It is our objective to meet this outcome and we are doing it through using Psychological Artistry. For more information about the workshops please click here or visit www.mindsways.com/SMS/.
FEEDBACK
We have both been very pleased with previous feedback, with people saying it was "mind blowing" and "totally new". We are now seeing that we are meeting your expectations and adding value, which is very important to us. To see what people have said see www.mindsways.com/about/what-people-say/
WHAT IS PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY?
Psychological Artistry has at its heart Mind magic a tradition that has intrigued, entertained and drawn people in for over a century. We wrap around and mix in the science of social psychology, NLP, neuroscience and smart thinking. We take the building blocks of magic and psychology, and transform them so that you can use them to show people what you do, as well as what makes you different and worthy of their time. This leads us down a path where our focus is on learning by doing and through showing not telling. This produces an approach that is different enough to draw people to your projects or ideas.
We do this by weaving together overlapping areas of delivery such as:
Psychology
Influence
NLP
Presentation Skills
Human Behaviour
Stagecraft
Performance
Confidence
Story Telling
Engagement
Magic ideas and techniques
Today in this society which is rapidly changing and evolving our visibility is vital. You must be able be visible. You must be able to deliver new ideas and present established ideas in new ways. One of the easiest ways to do this is to appeal to novelty.
The skills and experiences you can gain from Psychological Artistry allow you to absorb these new ideas into your world, full of your own experiences and thoughts. Use these for encouraging and illustrating self awareness and the power the environment and our circumstances has in how we think and behave.
This acts as a vehicle for you to stand out and make an impact with your ideas.
AN EXAMPLE OF PSYCHOLOGICAL ARTISTRY
A couple of interesting examples of how all is not as it appears are the McGurk effect and Prof Richard Wiseman's "The Incredible Colour Changing Card Effect". Please take a look here or visit mindsways.com/community. I would love to know what you think. These illustrate both the power and the approach of psychological artistry.
OTHER SERVICES
The SNT kit is available separately. We are currently shipping this worldwide with very positive feedback. If you are curious to see more, please click here.
We've found that on the Workshop, psychological artistry starts to mix itself in with the skill sets of of many different areas.

Out of the few I took at my local lake spot, this was the only one in focus. I tried the arm length, low-to-the-ground guess-focus... I was angry at the lake being so low and evaporating much of the wildlife I had come to admire. It was the one place I could go around here, if only for a short while, escape all the nonsense and get into photography's learning-by-doing. I tried by "not trying", and apparently failed every time except for this one image. A large doe kept following me, though... very strange dusk, that one...
Biography:
Susan Kuo, from Taiwan. Lives in San Francisco now. Like to travel and photography during my free time. Road trip is one of my favor ways to travel in USA. I like to take the pictures which record what I see and how I feel when I travel in that city. Catch the moments that last forever.

Learning by doing!
I apologize for only posting my drawings or paintings... but I don't get out with my camera too often.
Taken from my own photos.
There's some things I would do differently next time (For one, I'd attach the correct sleeves to the correct armholes). I think I'd also put in a lining: the coat would be 10x more beautiful if the inside were finished. And I think I'd put in a couple of pockets, or at least a slot to get at my pants pockets. But overall, I like this pattern a lot, and I think I'll be making it again in black, white, and maybe some other colors (maroon, perhaps?). Overall, the coat is maybe ankle length. It could use a belt, maybe. Or some other accessories, perhaps.

On the occasion of the Guggenheim Museum's 50th Anniversary and the exhibitions Frank Lloyd Wright: From Within Outward and Learning By Doing, which ran from May 15-Aug 23, 2009, the Guggenheim and Google SketchUp invited amateur and professional designers from around the world to enter Design It: Shelter Competition. From June 8, Frank Lloyd Wright's Birthday, through August 24, participants could submit a 3-D shelter for any location in the world using Google SketchUp and Google Earth.
Visit the competition site: www.guggenheim.org/shelter
The competition takes its inspiration from Learning By Doing, an exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum’s Sackler Center for Arts Education curated by David van der Leer, the museum’s Assistant Curator of Architecture and Design, which features plans, photographs, and models of shelters built by students at the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture. For the past seven decades, students at the school have taken on the challenge of designing, building, and living in small shelters nestled in the landscape of the school’s Arizona Taliesin West campus and recently on the Taliesin campus in Wisconsin as well. In addition to providing hands-on management and construction experience, the shelter program encourages students to consider human needs for safety and comfort as well as the relationship between architecture and place. Inspired by the program, the Design It: Shelter Competition opened Wright’s challenge to the world by asking participants to design an ideal shelter in a location of their choice and in response to that location.

Constructivist theory
Formalization of the theory of constructivism is generally attributed to Jean Piaget, who articulated mechanisms by which knowledge is internalized by learners. He suggested that through processes of accommodation and assimilation, individuals construct new knowledge from their experiences. When individuals assimilate, they incorporate the new experience into an already existing framework without changing that framework. This may occur when individuals' experiences are aligned with their internal representations of the world, but may also occur as a failure to change a faulty understanding; for example, they may not notice events, may misunderstand input from others, or may decide that an event is a fluke and is therefore unimportant as information about the world. In contrast, when individuals' experiences contradict their internal representations, they may change their perceptions of the experiences to fit their internal representations. According to the theory, accommodation is the process of reframing one's mental representation of the external world to fit new experiences. Accommodation can be understood as the mechanism by which failure leads to learning: when we act on the expectation that the world operates in one way and it violates our expectations, we often fail, but by accommodating this new experience and reframing our model of the way the world works, we learn from the experience of failure, or others' failure.
It is important to note that constructivism itself does not suggest one particular pedagogy. In fact, constructivism describes how learning should happen, regardless of whether learners are using their experiences to understand a lecture or attempting to design a model airplane. In both cases, the theory of constructivism suggests that learners construct knowledge. Constructivism as a description of human cognition is often associated with pedagogic approaches that promote learning by doing.

Yesterday and today I got to lead tours at my church, again. So far I've taken several people up here who have ended up in my strangers collection.
Wendy and Stefan were participating this weekend in the Essex County Trails & Sails program, which takes people all over Essex County MA to experience history. Our church participates every year, and we have a very historical church. These folks were intrepid visitors, and love going to the spots in buildings that often are off limits.
I offered to take this picture, but they also took a self portrait at arms length. When I offered to take one with their camera, Stefan said "no, we have about 15 years worth of shots like this. It's a tradition. So I took a picture of them taking their selfie. Here is the link to their self portrait that I shot them shooting... www.flickr.com/photos/amusings/8040605605
They were lovely visitors. Everyone I met this weekend was lovely. I'm enjoying my time as tour guide at Old South Presbyterian ....

About 100 strangers:Step out of your comfort zone to a new level of portrait photography. Start by taking 100 portraits of people you don't know.
The idea: The One Hundred Strangers project is a learning group for people who want to improve the social and technical skills needed for taking portraits of strangers and telling their stories. The method is learning by doing.
The project is lots of fun and improves photojournalistic skills. During the process you might expand your every day living experience - and who knows, maybe you will even get a couple of new friends during the process.
The challenge: Take 100 photographs of at least 100 people you don't know. Approach a person or group of people and ask for permission to both take a photo of them and to post it to this group. Get to know your subjects. Who are they? What is their life like?
Second experiment, not really to my satisfaction. A couple of weird spots where either focussing or Photoshop messed up. Oh well. Learning by doing, I suppose. :)
Terkadang kita tidak pernah tau apa yang harus kita hadapi di depan sana. Mengukur bagaimana kapasitas kita.
Sepanjang perjalanan setahun terakhir adalah tahun belajar untuk saya. Banyak hal sudah melibatkan saya. Dan jelas saya tidak seluar biasa itu untuk mengerti keseluruhan nya. Ada saat nya jenuh pengen nangis karena saya "harus" pura-pura tahu.
Sambil berjalan sambil belajar. Benar adanya filosofi "Learning by doing". Itu yang saya lakukan saat ini. Saya harus memulai, menghadapi dan memahami. Disinilah saya menemukan dunia baru. Tidak jauh sebenarnya dengan dunia Aesthetic yang selama 10th sudah saya lalui. Hanya beda bidang nya saja. Ada tahapan dan lingkup yang hampir sama untuk mencapai puncak jejak kesuksesan nya. Disini bukan bicara angka akhir yang saya dapati. Tetapi proses dan kesempatan yang bisa mengajak saya untuk berani berada di dunia baru.
