Dear reader,
below a new chapter in this here blog.
Shufflr Stories
For this Icebreaker uniquely developed for our teamshufflr random team generator, you take the cards specifically made with the app (or the online-version if you are in an online-setting) to divide attendees into groups of three to five people. At the same time, you need to set the group size to one for the "Icons" feature in the tool, so that a randomly assigned icon can be found on each card. The participants come together in the assigned groups - you can use the breakout-function of your conferencing tool in an online-setting - and now need to build a story from the randomly assigned icons. One person starts telling a story containing the icon on their card in one sentence, which is then continued by the next person with the next icon.
Stories can range widely from “A magnifying glass was floating in space. Then came a car zipping by, which was driven by an android bot, going to a conference on wifi” - or any other setting. That should really get the creative juices of the participants flowing! At the end, each group gets to briefly present their icon sequence and the story that goes with it - so everyone can have a good laugh.
