Participants can choose which blocks to participate in based on their availability and interest in that block’s exercise: 

Students do not need to participate every block, but if they are interested in being trained to deliver that block’s exercise, they must be present at both the first and second Thursday sessions that block. 

learning to facilitate

Each 1st and 2nd Thursday of a block, students will meet at C&I to critically analyze the delivery of one specific creative exercise led by the Director of the Creativity Lab, utilizing a facilitator’s strategy rubric.  On the 2nd Thursday of the block, students will practice delivering the same exercise and others will provide feedback using the rubric.   

After the 2nd Thursday, working in pairs, students will find a group on campus for whom they can deliver the exercise. This facilitation will be observed by the Director of the Creativity Lab. The Director and students will determine together the point at which the students are ready to deliver a workshop without being observed.   

Once students are ready to deliver a workshop without being observed, they can apply to be student workers within C&I and get paid to deliver the workshop across campus.  

Each block, a new exercise will be analyzed and practiced.  Students may participate in as many block trainings as they are able and then facilitate as many exercises as they have learned and practiced, whether they decide to become student workers in C&I or not.
