Failitation Skills

Of particular importance are the skills needed to conduct a solid discussion.

From the 2 days, these are some things that we need to observe, sounds very commonsenscial but it is not easily achieved.

To have a good discussion
  1. Facilitators should talk less and listen more to avoid narrowing the scope of the discussion.
  2. Engage the participants by using ACTS(refer to the previous 2 posts)
  3. Ask questions and use the frame work of ELC to design activities for the team.
I am going to practise that more often.
By doing so, I can talk less and yet engage the participants!
