Facilitator’s checklist: Keeping learners in the zone

Sample of the facilitator’s checklist

The facilitator’s checklist is a practical guide to help keep learners in the sweet spot of the learning zone.

It begins with creating the right environment and clear expectations. During the workshop, facilitators model openness, build community, and provide support while staying flexible. The checklist highlights signs of energy and curiosity, as well as warnings of comfort or panic. After the session, it prompts reflection and feedback to refine future practice.
