Experiential Debriefs

Experiential Debriefs

Debriefing or reflection after or during an activity, or at the end of your program, doesn’t have to be the typical circle with a question and answer format.

Changing up your debriefs throughout the program to keep them varied, novel, and experiential keeps everyone engaged.

Here is a short example of a debrief that is also an activity: tableau vivant or living picture.

One resource on this topic, we highly recommend is:

A Teachable Moment: A Facilitator’s Guide to Activities for Processing, Debriefing, Reviewing, and Reflection by Jim Cain, Michelle Cummings, and Jennifer Stanchfield.
