I need to add some energy into a fairly dry induction.
Looking for some ice breakers and some kind of physical model of the swiss cheese safety effect. I want to make the induction interactive with some good learning tools that I physically use not the usual DVD's.
Happy to purchase.
Any recommendations?

Does the swiss cheese model say anything (of value) to workers? I have used it (real model included) for managers, as a way to say 'why check?' - showing that holes appear and develop in even the best system. Whilst fun to play with, it was integrated into a bigger play-workshop, and there was a clear learning point for that audience. I wouldn't use it in inductions.
If the main purpose of the induction is to tick certain boxes, (rather than actually promote real learning) maybe it just has to dry and be endured. Then you can try more engaging tactics in ongoing training events with more specific learning objectives.
I can give tips on making a model if you PM me.

To be honest, I think the best inductions are short and to the point, everyone who is in an induction is new to that area/site and may have sat a number of inductions prior, they dont want to interact, they want to get it done and get on with the job (my opinion/ views). Granted if you are totally new, have never sat an induction then thats a different matter. I personally have sat inductions that are half day affairs, which had no relevence, but just appear to be a tick the box job.

I use inductions as a Q&A session - as an activity session (in groups) - an interaction mechanism and lastly as a get to know you session. This allows the inductees to think, solve and speak (and voice their opinions within reason). I am therefore the guiding force and not the centre of attention all the time. Just another way of doing it and seems to work on most occasions.
