Materials for Activity

  • Newsprint lists of insights and questions from small groups
  • Handout 1, Reflection Questions

Preparation for Activity

  • Calculate how much presentation time to allot each travel group. Aim for 5-10 minutes per group to spend no more than 30 minutes on all the presentations.

Description of Activity

Re-gather the large group. Invite each travel group, in turn, to post their insights and questions and share the most important three or four with the large group.

Lead a large group discussion based on Handout 1, Reflection Questions. Invite participants to share stories and insights from both the panel and the field trip. You might find it helpful to post blank newsprint and track comments as they are voiced during the open discussion.

Encourage the group to sit with their insights and questions. Explain that in the final workshop, the group will translate what they have gleaned into a plan of action.
