Designing and facilitating group building in a training
Designing and facilitating group building in a training
Inhalt
According to the T-Kit Training Essentials, in non-formal education, the group is one of the key sources for learning.
Online or in residential settings, it creates the feeling of a learning community and cumulative energy of a shared learning experience. In addition, it widens the pool of competences, experience and diverse realities.
From an educational point of view, people being trained together in a residential setting, while very often
sharing the same accommodation, encourages them to live a unique experience which can support their learning in many ways:
- learning together and sharing experiences;
- learning from each other. In peer-group education people share their experiences and as positive models can also shape the behaviour and attitudes of their peers;
- a protected learning context in an out-of-the-ordinary reality;
- developing communication in an organisation when people from one organisation are training together;
- encountering new people and creating new networks.
When the group meets they first enter the stage of “forming” when there is an initial excitement and the
first bonds are being formed. At the same time, the participants are often being polite and are not engaging
with each other on a deeper level. This is the stage when icebreakers and group-building tasks and activities
can be very helpful, to crack the facades a little and give participants incentives for interaction.
- How do you facilitate the group building activities in the forming stage?
- Based on your training experiences, what methods and activities do work well for group building?
- How do you facilitate participants' becoming aware of their individual and group needs?
The YOUTRAIN videoproject offers several videos with methods and activities that can facilitate the group building.
Awero organisation created this educational resource and activity for the Training of Trainers on Designing Educational Programmes course.

- Understanding and facilitating group dynamic in a way that is conducive to different ways of learning.
- Developing an educational approach based on the principles and values of non-formal learning.
