Description
Debriefing & Reflection Learning outcomes
The facilitators ask the participants what are the challenges that may occur in a team and synthesize them on the flipchart. The next question is which one of those challenges they think is fading, improving, or what happens extra when we talk about a remote team? Given these challenges there are many online applications to answer them. Have the participants heard of such applications? If so, what teamwork, collaboration, or communication applications have they heard of? The participants are split in groups of 5-6, each team having assigned an application - Trello, Slack, Zoom, etc. Each team has to document the application, install it and test it, identify the needs that its application responds to, its advantages and disadvantages, whether it can be used on the phone or laptop, and finally, they have to design a 15 minute presentation of the application for the rest of the participants. How did you experience these apps? Were they useful? Communication in a mother tongue: Learning public speaking & body language
Digital competence: Get familiarised with digital tools and applications; Collaborating through digital tools.
