Summary
[edit]The idea is to organize enhanced speed dating as a warm up for the conference. In order to make it fruitful it will be arranged in "challenges vs solutions" competition:
- Introduction and table arrangement: 5 min.
- The participants will be divided in the number of tables - people who do not know each other should sit together and make some short introduction
- Round 1: Challenges: 15 min
- There will be one project or type of activity related to Wikimedia projects for each table; it will be announced to each table by organizers as the tables will be arranged.
- The participants should think of and write down on big piece of paper all challenges that might cause the problems/spoil the project/activity; after the end of this round papers with challenges should be left on tables.
- Round 2: Solutions: 15 min
- The participants should leave their tables an go to the other ones, again - try to find the table at which there are many people you don't know.
- The participants should think of and write down the possible solutions for challenges to the projects/activities that have on their table.
- Round 3: Evaluation: 15 min
- The participants should leave their tables an go to the other ones, again - try to find the table at which there are many people you don't know.
- The participants should read the challenges and solutions for the projects/activities that have on their table and discuss which solutions does or doesn't might really work.
- Round 4: Summary: 5-10 min.
- One person in each table makes a 1 min brief of the outcomes of previous 3 rounds.
- All people gathered vote which table produced the best/most innovative/funny results.
- All people who participated in the winning tables will get symbolic prize (a cake, barnstar etc..) .
