Coded Nametags
No votes yet
Type of strategy: Group ManagementMovement
Use in situations when you know the names of participants and are making nametags ahead of time. Appropriate for full-day and multi-day workshops.
Directions:
- Determine the coding system you wish to use. Colored dots, stickers, icons, and numbers all work well. Place the appropriate codes on the back of each nametag.
- During the workshop, instruct participants to regroup according to one of the codes on their nametag. If you have prior knowledge of participants you can pre-determine which people will be working together.
NOTE: The size of each group may vary with each code (e.g., colored dots – groups of three, stickers – groups of six, numbers – groups or four, etc.)
