Notes:
This exercise is suitable for use with groups of up to 12 participants. It is run as a competitive game, which is a race to the finish and played in 2-4 teams with 2-3 players in each team. We do not recommend having teams with more than 3 participants.

We recommend using Miro for this activity due to the functionality available, but it is possible to run the activity using other collaborative whiteboard solutions or PowerPoint, if preferred.

Remote/Virtual Delivery:
Remote Delivery requires a system that as an absolute minimum provides the following functionality:
• Face-to-face discussion.
• Share screen.
• Chat.
• Share files.

In addition, we strongly recommend using a system that provides for:
• Polls/Quizzes (not required).
• Breakout Rooms (not required).
• Collaborative Whiteboard (recommended).
