Duration 25-35min Group size 15-20 participants Materials Markers, flipcharts & a board. Description The facilitator makes a presentation on ways that conversations work and connects it to the ‘Draw as I tell you’ game. The facilitator introduces the transmitter, the message and the receiver. The facilitator keeps on presenting to the participants the obstacles that the transmitter and the receiver have to face in order to have a successful conversation. The first obstacle is the ‘noise’. Here is where the first question to the participants is arising: ‘what is noise?’. The participants will have the chance to contribute with their opinion in the discussion in order to see how each of us perceives the ‘noise’. Then the facilitator explains the meaning of ‘noise’ in communication. Afterwards the facilitator presents the second obstacle, the ‘wall-filter’. The question arises again and after a short dialogue like in the first question, the facilitator explains the ‘wall-filter’. After this presentation, a small discussion takes place and participants share their thoughts or experience with the model. Debriefing & What are transmitters, messages, and receivers?
