Daniel Bromley

ADULT PROBATION OFFICER INSTRUCTOR 

We asked a few faculty around campus about their barrier to learning and what they do to improve accessibility.

Our amazing faculty member, Dan, had this to say…

What is a barrier to learning that you have experienced and you wished you’d had better access? ​

Two comments come to mind:

What is something you’ve done in your work (as an instructor, course developer, administrator, etc.) to improve accessibility in your area? ​

I am mindful that our Adult Probation Officer training can be overwhelming and daunting at times. There are numerous minute details that can leave a new recruit feeling lost as their focus is drawn away from the over-arching goals. With this challenge in mind, I continually seek ways to bring the attention back to the macro perspective of the Probation Officer role. I continually look for opportunities to link the content to stories or real-life examples to generate meaning for the question of “why do we need to learn this?”  In doing so, I believe I am making the content/material more accessible for all training participants.
