SP08 Stormz: Taking CPS Facilitation Online

You've gone digital for communicating, calculating, planning and playing. But when it comes to facilitating Creative ProblemSolving, you still use Post-its and flip chart paper? Good news! Things have changed. Stormz is a digital application, used by facilitators around the world, which allows you to engage online and in-person groups in collaborative sessions using CPS tools and techniques (word dancing, brainstorming, forced connections, PPCO and many others). This workshop is designed for experienced CPS facilitators. The focus is not on CPS tools and techniques, nor on facilitation, but on how to use Stormz to facilitate CPS sessions that integrate the process and tools you already use. This workshop is ideal for practitioners experiencing flip chart and Post-it fatigue. You will learn how to:
  • Work with groups in multiple locations.
  • Create greater collaboration and engagement when leading large groups.
  • Leverage new technology to support the CPS process.

NOTE: This workshop counts toward full certification in Stormz, available online for free. You can set up an account and use with 3 additional people at no cost. This workshop is valuable whether or not you choose to become certified.

NOTE: SPACE IS LIMITED; BE SURE TO SELECT A SPARK WORKSHOP DURING YOUR REGISTRATION.
