Running Collaborative Online Meetings - a workshop

πŸ–– Welcome! We're running short 60-min workshops, hosted by volunteers drawn from online communities, to help attendees learn some of the tips and tricks of running online participatory meetings. The focus in these workshops is for participants to experience techniques. We will also talking about how we think about these techniques so attendees can understand them and build a bit of confidence around using them themselves.

Learning Objectives

  • Demonstrate participatory norm formation in multi-party video calls using shared documents.
  • Allow learners to experience participatory contribution in several forms (roll-call, ice breaker, Q&A, Breakouts, Community Discussion)
  • Encourage multi-modal engagement with/without video.
  • Share and experience examples of good practices in call/meeting management
  • Experience break-out rooms and group prompts to launch small-group discussions

🚨 PARTICIPANTS - FIND A TIME BELOW THAT SUITS 🚨
