This webinar from 19 June 2024 explores a variety of minimal preparation graphic facilitation tools. Each can be used to support learners, teaching teams and teachers to self-evaluate their progress, set goals and reflect on distance travelled.

As teachers, we want our students to succeed. Our aim is to equip them with the life skills to support themselves on their chosen journeys. This session will share innovative ways to help learners map out their future, identify goals and reflect on distance travelled. Using simple graphic facilitation techniques, participants will be guided to create and use quick, minimal preparation visual tools which will inspire and motivate learners. These accessible tools and techniques are perfect for online and face to face teaching – and will convince anyone they can draw!
