Learner-led App

Description

Participants or groups create their own online activities through various apps and websites, then lead the room or breakout rooms through their activity.

Why we like it

This activity helps participants filter content into online apps and helps other participants use the content as they perform the activities. Participants enjoy being on the creator and facilitator side of learning.

Process

1. Give participants any instructions and logistics needed such as an example story, time limits, storytelling structures, etc.
2. Break teams into breakout rooms to construct their shared story.  A shared whiteboard for typing or images is recommended.  If needed, give participants time to rehearse their story.
3. Back in the main room, groups tell their stories.
4. Add any evaluation or feedback (from facilitator or participants) as needed.

Daisy chain options

a) Record or transcribe stories for deeper analysis or review.
b) Continue to build or enhance stories after a round of feedback.
c) Add visual aids during story presentation.

Variations

Groups tell their stories in World Cafe fashion.
