*INTRODUCING NUTSHELL MODELS* *Definition* Nutshell Models are simplified presentations of complex, vague or uncertain matters. They are designed to maximize comprehension by finding and using essential facts in a simplified manner that is easy for the average person to understand. Interaction The Nutshell Model learning process includes lively interactions between the audience and the instructor. These interactions often lead to enhancement of the model's application during the learning process, resulting in a dynamic, developmental learning system. Motivation Learners quickly see significant improvement in their comprehension of the subject matter. This makes Nutshell Models great motivational tools. These models are most effective at the beginning of the learning process when the audience is concerned with the complexity, ambiguity, uncertainty and/or quantity of the knowledge and skills to be acquired. Inspiration Audience response to Nutshell Models is often overwhelming. Responses include phrases such as "I was inspired...", "I discovered...", "I realized that things are simpler than they seem to be...". Presentation The Nutshell Model concept is not intended to replace the existing body of knowledge on any given subject matter. It is meant to complement this knowledge by stimulating curiosity and motivation to learn, accelerated learning, accelerated experience, and extended retention of the acquired knowledge and skills. Participation Nutshell Models are provocative by nature; they often challenge the status quo. The audience tends to react by challenging the model's accuracy. The resulting exchange is used to increase audience participation and effect the developmental learning process.
