For each Arena, there are 10 Topic Cards that the group reviews and chooses 3 for that lab. Here is an example of the Arena Card and 3 Topic Cards:
Arena: Community
Example Topic Cards for this Arena:
- Active sense of belonging
- Opportunities to contribute
- Onboarding for newcomers
The creative challenge in each lab is for the participants to connect one of the 3 Topic Cards and connect it with a set of Story Sharing Prompts that are read aloud. An example of a prompt is “A first memory, either positive or negative.”
Go to Lab Reflections for a dialog of participants after their first experience.
