What is this activity?

Apply workshop learning to an authentic work artefact.

Preparation

Ask participants to bring a draft email, report, pitch or other work sample; prepare a simple rubric.

How to run it

  1. 1Review the artefact against the rubric.
  2. 2Identify three specific improvements.
  3. 3Rewrite or redesign the relevant section.
  4. 4Compare before and after with a peer.
  5. 5Commit to using the revised version.

Example in Action

Ask participants to bring something they've recently produced, such as an email, presentation, report or customer message. After learning a new technique, they identify three ways to improve their original work. They make the changes during the workshop and compare the before-and-after versions with a partner.

Make it your own

Adapt the topic, scenario or materials to suit your audience.
