Add examples where necessary to explain methods and activities.
When leading participants through an activity, example outputs demonstrate what the successful output looks like for each method. Add examples throughout the template to guide the participants and facilitators so they know the potential outcomes for each activity and the entire process.
Being able to clearly communicate the instructions and steps for all the activities might not be enough. Showing relevant examples could set a good direction for practitioners and help them generate ideas. Use design elements such as different colors for sticky notes and text boxes to make your examples stand out and help the practitioners.
Hi, Emilia here. We looked at a couple of examples on how to include examples in your mural to provide the practitioner with examples of what good looks like, examples of how to complete the activities, in the lightning decision jam templates for example, we found examples of how to craft your "How might we?" statement and we also had a placeholder here where you can add your sticky note with your challenge that you chose to work with. We also looked at the blueprint template where we had very clear examples of how to use the different colors of sticky notes from the legend, to different aspects of the journey into the blueprint in here.
Just like in a cooking show, I went ahead and added a couple of examples to this template as well. Since you wanted to recommend the participants to claim a sticky-note color each, I went ahead and added a little name tag here, so the people can add their name to the first sticky note in order to assign different colored peach of the persons, in the session.
And then in the radar you would typically start the session, or, this is something you can prepare in advance as well, by assigning the different pie slices for different categories. So, in order to show what this can look like, I actually went ahead and assigned the first two pie slices here, with different categories and then I left the rest of the categories untouched here. I also started a couple of sticky notes in the radar sticky set an example of how it can be used, like for events, for example, we need to order t-shirts for the conference, so that they arrive in time and we will send it to practice presentations but at this point, I guess, ordering t-shirts is a little bit more important, so I'll add it, more closer to the middle here.
For the Rose thorn bud activity, In order to make it easier for the participants to understand how to use the color coding on this activity. I actually had an example here where for the rows, I clarify that these are things that are working well for Thorn these are things that need improvement and pod that will be opportunities. So hopefully this is going to be a little bit easier for people to understand and follow.
I also went, I had signed an example of the affinity cluster here. So, we have an example here of how we can combine different sticky notes from the different categories but as long as they have the same theme we can group them all together. So now our canvas is pretty much completed and ready to be published, in order to get to get started you already come pretty far. So, congratulations for that. And, I'm looking forward to seeing your templates. So feel free to share them with us.
