Round Robin
Vivid way to structure a discussion for a complex topic.
Experiential learning & Debriefing session
This is a practical training module to teach how to brief and debrief an exercise.
There is a strong 'meta' aspect in this session: you have a real experiential exercise during the session, and you will narrow down on the experience of how the briefing and the debriefing were done by the trainers.
This way participants will have the chance to first take part in a debriefing as participants, and then analyse the experience they just had.
