I think these series of workshop are very useful to shape vocational training teachers/coachers out look in teaching approaches. The transiton from academic-based learning to workshop learning/workplace learning, group and team interactions learning is a new social constructed learning that needs continues training of teachers to unlearned the old tradition of individual, lectures and teacher dominated class room approach.
