SESSION PREPARATION

How might we increase networking among students from different majors at Herron?
Session Objectives
Even though the session was for practice we needed a goal to stay focused. We came up with a problem area and a “how might we” statement to lead our session.
Planning
The next steps were to create an agenda for us and our participants to stay on task and within our time frame.
Methods
We began choosing methods we thought would work best with our “how might we” statement.
-
Quick Ideating on paper
-
Character profiles
-
Role playing
SESSION ACTIVITIES
Ideating
Once the session began we asked them to get in groups and write down ideas on how their given character could network with other Herron majors.
Converging
After quick ideating we had each group choose a final idea and write it down on
a notecard.
Role Playing
We then asked them to reenact their final idea. Each group had the opportunity to create a story through their character profileand their own ideas.
