5 Lessons Learned Presenting Group Activities Online
5 Lessons Learned Presenting Group Activities Online is a team reflection exercise for reflection and learning: it helps participants reflect on experience and turn observations into learning.
How to run it
- Judging by the torrent of emails my inbox received, questions like “Do I know any icebreakers that work on Zoom?” and “How do I build trust online?” were commonplace.
- I never held myself up as an expert, rather an explorer along with everyone else.
- In short, facilitating group activities online IS a very different beast to facilitating live in-person groups.
- There are many transferable skills in presenting group activities online, but they are not the same skill set.
