Introduzione
Are you interested in setting up a workshop?
If so, do you want to ensure that your workshop delivers the best experience for participants?
You will want participants to learn something new, be inspired, interact and enjoy discussion with others, but most of all enjoy the experience. The designer of a workshop must consider a wide range of elements: delivery face-to-face or via a virtual platform such as Zoom; participant expectations; scheduling; participant comfort; communication before the workshop; the administrative challenges of delivering multiple workshops; materials and resources; venue and arrangement of equipment and furniture if face-to-face; IT issues if delivered virtually; methods of participation and exercises; slides and other visual aids; how best to start off the workshop; matters arising and feedback after the workshop; and contingency planning for overrunning, underrunning and the unexpected!
The workshop, built around a 'Workshop Design Toolkit', aims at sharing the trainer’s extensive experience in planning and delivering effective workshops either to internal team or external stakeholders.
In this workshop, we will consider:
- Mode of delivery: face-to-face vs virtual platform
- The learning curve: your early workshops will be a challenge
- Participants and their expectations
- Scheduling
- Participant comfort
- Communication before the workshop
- Workshop series: lightening the administrative workload
- Materials and resources
- Starting and introductions
- Venue and arrangement of equipment and furniture if face-to-face
- IT issues if delivered virtually
- Participation and exercises
- Slides for workshops and other visual aids
- Starting the workshop
- Matters arising and feedback after the workshop
- Contingency planning and troubleshooting
- Dealing with feedback
- Workshop Design Toolkit
This workshop is suitable for (i) anyone aiming to set up a workshop, but who has little or no relevant experience, (ii) those who have delivered workshops and want to reflect on their techniques and broaden their ideas on how to deliver a successful workshop, (iii) anyone who is hesitant about setting up a workshop and wants to know what is involved before committing, and (iv) anyone who provides multiple workshops, but who is finding it a challenge to organise resources and handle the communication and administration workload.
The workshop is intended to be a ‘two-way’ learning and discussion experience questions and subsequent discussion are welcome at any time during the workshop.
- Lecturer will deliver short presentations on the programme topics.
- A series of polling questions will be used to illustrate participants ideas and perceptions about delivering a workshop.
- In breakout rooms, small groups of participants will be given a common workshop-related ‘problem’ to discuss and to suggest ideas to overcome the issue.
