ICEBREAKERS ONLINE

Hi all,

You all made some interesting points about how and when to use icebreakers. I will make a summary next Monday.
We still have to choose three icebreakers that can be used online.
Could you all suggest one or two icebreakers?
Tomorrow I will collect them so we can vote on them.

Have a nice weekend,
Carmen

Hello,
here are my two suggestions :
1 / The choice of technology is “a chat room” to create a similar face to face contact (make sure everyone has a photograph posted. It is a synchronous session. You give the list of participants to begin with and instructions.
Starting with the one on top of the list the 2 previous ones (depending on how many persons in the group) are asking a question. Only silly, weird and funny questions are authorized. No personal or unkind questions. Never repeat the same question. Keep in mind that this is just a fun session. It is fast so spontaneous. If you have a timer it is easier to give top and stop!

2/ The choice of technology is a forum to allow time for creativity. It is asynchronous. Create a gallery of images. Each participant post an image (not a photograph) evoking him or her. Then each other participant is entitled to one question by image. At the end each participant comment why the choice of image.
Cheers
