style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>My experience is not right
as usual as I mostly facilitate such short OST meetings and I have only 2 half-an-
hour sessions and no time to type reports. I collect written reports after
presenting them and type them by myself at night to distribute on the next day
with pictures included. In case when I can't give them back to the participants
before they live I prefer to make copies and give them handwritten copies. This
is better then nothing. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span lang=EN-US
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>I share your concern that
having half an hour break for typing reports will be losing energy before the
closing circle. By the way I have facilitated an OST meeting with up to 70
people , mostly old, who can't type anyhow. There were volunteers who were sitting
in the groups and typing reports during discussions. They managed to finish
making printed copies and books of proceedings to the end of our Closing
circle. People have been happy to go back from OST with typed reports. It was
without pictures and contained not full information, probably, but it was a
tangible result.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<br>
I'll be facilitating soon a short OS event of about 3h1/2, at the end of a 2
days conference for women involved in politics.<br>
The host insists on having typed proceedings, because she expects the OS part
to boost empowerment in participants and encourage them to be more and more
professional in their involvement (and stay in politics in spite of all kind of
troubles women face in this kind of career.).<br>
<br>
In the beginning she was thinking of having staff type reports but I
discouraged her and she agreed to it. So we will have computers to type reports
. Reports will be typed by participants themselves.<br>
<br>
However I never organized typed reports within such a short event so I would
appreciate your advices and experiences.<br>
Right now I suggested 2 rounds of one-hour-session then a break of 1/2h in
order to type reports then closing circle. But that makes the break quite late
in the afternoon and just before the closing circle: this doesn't feel optimal.<br>
<br>
What would you suggest ? <br>
<br>
Christine <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
