<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>Hi Allison,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>This is subtle...rather than thinking of
"getting feedback" in your 10 minutes sessions, how about inviting the group to
co-create something on the pros and cons of OST (or other
topic)?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" size=2>"Feedback" implies to me a
hierarchical speaker/responder situation. To give them a taste of a
different dynamic, how about setting up a cooperative venture into
creating a document in 5-8 minutes (following your 2-5 minutes of set
up)?</FONT></DIV>

minutes with each new group, so I need to say as little as possible and then
get feedback from the group members.<BR>
<DIV>That may be good experience for me - to describe OST and open a new space
all within maybe 3 or 4 minutes, to a mixed group... </DIV>
<DIV>then get feedback recorded in the remaining 5 minutes before one group
leaves and the next group meanders in.</DIV>

I found myself in that position (I hope not, but...) I would put up some
assumptions/beliefs - some leading to the traditional conference (as the
one, you are attending) and some leading to OST. I would find the beliefs
from thinking about this actual conference: why do we do stuff like this?

important!)</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
