By Adam Turteltaub What do cupcakes, cookies and compliance training have in common?  More than you might think, reports Barbara-Ann Boehler, Senior Director of the Program on Corporate Compliance and Ethics at Fordham University  School of Law.  She successfully used the act of frosting the treats a part of a compliance learning exercise. It’s a great, if unusual, example of experiential learning, which seeks to teach people by getting the learner to do the thing that they are learning rather than just sitting and listening. A more common example of experiential learning is to create a case study in which the participants play different roles and see how the situation plays out. This interactive approach to learning can be much stickier, figuratively and literally (if you use frosting) with lessons sinking in deeper and discussions lasting long after the session is over. Listen in to learn more but, maybe, eat something healthy first.
