__NOTOC__ | |||
The following notes detail how to facilitate a Spectrogram. | |||
== Before the event == | |||
* Decide on the spectrogram statements. Each statement should be: | |||
** Clear: Short and easy to remember | |||
** Inclusive: everyone participating should be able to relate to the statement and have an opinion | |||
** Extreme: Make strong and emphatic statements, rather than vague or general ones | |||
== Test the statements == | |||
* Make sure you can imagine what types of participant would agree, disagree, or be confused | |||
* Share the statements with event organizers to get feedback, improve and refine them. | |||
== On the day of the event == | |||
* Lay down the tape on the floor, with cross-marks. You don't need to label the ends unless you want to. | |||
* Find 3 people who will serve as a "demo" team to show other participants how the session format works | |||
** Decide who will completely agree with the sample statement, who will completely disagree, and who will be confused. | |||
== At the event == | |||
