Growing your online facilitator’s toolbox
This workshop is a celebration of ice breakers, warm-ups, energisers and check-ins: we are convinced that they are the glue that will make your online workshop inclusive, effective and pleasurable.
Meet a team of facilitators whose experience ranges from citizen dialogue to tinkering, exhibition development to coding, who put all their best tools together and will be taking you through a great selection of them, alternating plenary moments and small group experiences. Whether you’re after a collective visual challenge, a body-on intermezzo, a trust-building exercise or an onboarding game, you’re bound to find inspiration in this session. We’ll share an online repository of these techniques, inviting you to add your own.
Join us for 45 minutes of tips, tricks and fun!
