(or how could you enhance the ones we used!) mmcdanielsphd https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2387328686 2022-11-16 21:23:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2387328686 Putting us in breakout groups enhanced my engagement. mmcdanielsphd https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402603759 2022-11-29 21:22:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402603759 Partially populated spreadsheets for entering notes and ideas during breakout activities. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604049 2022-11-29 21:22:54 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604049 https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604116 I wonder how some additional learning modalities can be incorporated]]> 2022-11-29 21:23:00 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604116 Setting up a google sheet with tabs for different break-outs was good- reporting out doesn't give a full picture of conversations, but being able to thumb through the notes of other groups added value. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604369 2022-11-29 21:23:23 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604369 https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604425 I like how the learning modalities changed periodically in the presentation (e.g., more tactile and solitary with the chat storm to breakout groups).]]> 2022-11-29 21:23:26 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604425 Rather than having everyone discuss every question for each scenario we could have done a jigsaw, where different groups discuss different questions from the scenario and then share out at the end. This would allow for a shorter discussion window. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604460 2022-11-29 21:23:27 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604460 rotating responsibilities between notetaking, facilitators and timekeepers in small breakouts https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604747 2022-11-29 21:23:46 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604747 Enjoyed the google sticky tab app https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604762 2022-11-29 21:23:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402604762 Changing roles each breakout session if possible. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605085 2022-11-29 21:24:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605085 I found the chat storm overwhelming. The Jamboard or a word cloud or other similar activity gives more time to think about other's responses. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605385 2022-11-29 21:24:33 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605385 https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605470 Inclusion activities in which we shared something personal (ex. workspace) helped me feel more connected to the virtual group.]]> 2022-11-29 21:24:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605470 Some scenarios could have included a role play option. awrigmock https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605655 2022-11-29 21:24:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605655 Introductory activities to get us engaged from the outset were well done. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605773 2022-11-29 21:24:59 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605773 I enjoyed starting each session with a group check-in activity. It is a nice way to break the ice (and maybe also helps me get my digresssion tendencies out of the way) :) https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605863 2022-11-29 21:25:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605863 https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402605993 I loved the google form on communication style.  It caused reflection and it reminded us of helpful and less helpful group behaviors. It also gave a great landscape of the participants for the facilitators and those participating.

Makes it interactive for everyone in the group and also shares ideas across groups. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402606599 2022-11-29 21:26:00 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402606599 Report Out https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402606672 The report out could have been done in writing to allow the group decide on what to report together]]> 2022-11-29 21:26:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402606672 Explaining the goals and objectives of the mentoring action plan from the outset. I kind of picked up the intent as we went along. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402606676 2022-11-29 21:26:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402606676 I love the breakout rooms. I enjoy meeting people from different backgrounds, and it gave us some time to get to know each other and network https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402606811 2022-11-29 21:26:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402606811 I appreciated the bios on each person, so then I can look you all up after the session and stay in touch. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402606911 2022-11-29 21:26:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402606911 I would love to see more empathy building work. Perhaps by asking questions where participants could actually "feel" their own experiences and then bridge those feelings to others. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402607266 2022-11-29 21:26:44 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402607266 An enhancement would be starting everyone on the same time clock. At times, it felt shorter than allotted. And maybe send a quick note the time starts now and the group has X amount of time. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402607775 2022-11-29 21:27:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402607775 If there was a way to visualize all chat answers at once that would be nice. Hard to read everything that scrolls by https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402607844 2022-11-29 21:27:30 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402607844 I would like to see the difference between the ambiguous case studies and some that have more detail. Is the former more effective in stimulating conversation? https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402608307 2022-11-29 21:28:05 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402608307 I thought the sharing of a personal item today was a bit long and could be exchanged for something that had quicker responses - like the poll or a few polls? https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402608442 2022-11-29 21:28:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402608442 The case studies were really relevant. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402614773 2022-11-29 21:36:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402614773 I also really appreciated having breaks. :) https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402617920 2022-11-29 21:40:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402617920 Using the Zoom poll was also a handy way for engaging participants. https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402618482 2022-11-29 21:41:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mmcdanielsphd/229gbadiphh2fl6/wish/2402618482
