Chunk and Chew method when providing technical training. In an article and video about online facilitation, Patricia Regier emphasizes the importance of slowing down when presenting information to ensure understanding and engagement. She advises facilitators to consider the sensory experiences of their participants, explaining that they might be simultaneously listening, watching, taking notes, and attempting to apply the information. Regier recommends incorporating visual cues and verbal descriptions when sharing information, particularly when demonstrating technical tasks, as participants may not always be looking at the same place on their screens. By consistently describing actions and locations, facilitators can ensure that participants can follow along, regardless of their visual access or learning styles. She also encourages facilitators to adopt a learner perspective and consider how their participants are experiencing the training.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
