Children often ask challenging questions, but according to John's
guest this time, we should see these as valuable opportunities for
learning. Dr Rebecca Rolland is a speech pathologist and education
lecturer whose recently published book, “The Art of Talking with
Children”, gives parents and educators practical strategies for
holding what she calls 'rich 'conversations' which she sees as
central to effective parenting and education. John discusses these
strategies with Rebecca, and explores how applicable these
techniques might be to older students and the field of workplace
learning.
