Pure face-to-face training is increasingly being supplemented or even replaced by modern forms of learning such as blended learning, online training, e-learning and informal learning. What does this mean for you as a trainer (lecturer, speaker, personnel developer)? This reference book shows how the job description of the trainer is changing due to digitalisation and which competences you need as a trainer to be successful in the "learning revolution". After all, specialist knowledge paired with classroom didactics is no longer enough. This work takes you by the hand to become a learner again as a trainer and to develop into an "agile learning facilitator". It gives you orientation in the digital "trainer competence jungle". In a practical and clearly understandable way, you will receive both theoretical background knowledge and practical implementation possibilities for the modernisation of your continuing education programme.

NEW JOINTS is a must-read for anyone considering joint replacement. Though the illustrated exercises focus on knees and hips, the information directly relates to preparing for any orthopedic surgery. Written in a non-technical, approachable format, this manual addresses subjects that are applicable not only to those considering surgery, but to anyone who wants to learn how to better move in their own body. Chapters include: how to personalize exercises; the importance of setting goals and how to do so; understanding pain; balance and proprioception; self image; developing support systems; websites and books to use as additional tools. NEW JOINTS is also an excellent tool for helping readers learn how to communicate their own specific orthopedic issues and needs to doctors and physical therapists. Ms. Wolfe has worked with both groups and individuals as a fitness trainer, as a massage therapist, and has worked with many individuals before and after orthopedic surgeries. Both she and her husband have been through their own injuries and orthopedic surgeries, and NEW JOINTS is informed by her experiences in maintaining their functioning.
