Collaboration Tools

If you use Google Documents (slide, sheet, chat ...) on a shared drive, everybody has the same information at the same time. Modifications are easily notified for all. It then reduces massively the number of exchanges through emails. You just share the link. Use it as a very collaborative tool: ask people for their opinion by letting them to comment the document to really use the collective intelligence.

It is also a good way to capitalise knowledge and for example introduce a new team member. You can also check this Airbus Community: https://sites.google.com/airbus.com/collaborationmadeawesome/home?pli=1

Le pro action café revisité

Présentation

Le pro action café, comme le world café ou le forum ouvert, est un format de discussion qui est utilisé pour favoriser l’échange constructif ainsi que l’intelligence collective dans toutes ses facettes. Dans cette description d’atelier nous vous proposons tout particulièrement l’utilisation du pro action café pour l’apprentissage collectif ou le brainstorming. Nous pouvons notamment l’utiliser dans un objectif de pédagogie inversée, dans la mesure où ce sont les participants qui vont s’enrichir les uns les autres.
