TGL: February 2011 is a relationship mapping exercise that helps participants build useful connections and understand how people, roles, or ideas relate.
How to run it
- There's wisdom in groups. The group as a whole knows more than you do.
- Webinars can and should incorporate activities.
- There is a big difference between online training sessions (webinars) for groups of less than 20 and groups of more than 50.
- Most participants have varying amounts of expertise and experience on most training topics.
- Most participants are also capable of taking a basic idea and working out details of transfer and application. By explaining too much, trainers deny opportunities for participants to share what they know and how they plan to use it.
- Based on these principles, we have created an online structured sharing activity incorporating the concept of Self-Directed Learning Teams (SDLT). Here's the flow of this activity.
- Jolt Eye Test by Tracy Tagliati You should have your eyes examined.
- Discoveries “Tell me a story!” by Brian Remer Nine pictures generate endless stories.
- by Brian Remer Create your own story-and share it.
