The concept behind the activity
Our EmotionCards are small, solid, multipurpose photographic works of art. Anyone looking at them makes their own instant associations. Personal experience and feelings can easily be put into words because they can be visualised. The cards can be used both for one-on-one work as well as in larger groups. All the participants are involved in the debriefing process. Even reserved and shy participants are easily integrated into the discussion. The EmotionCards make different perspectives and experiences accessible to all.
Facilitating the activity
Debriefing of learning projects: The EmotionCards are spread out on a table. Directly after finishing a learning project, you ask the participants to each take an EmotionCard that answer a question.
Examples:
“Choose a picture that says something personal about you!” The participants then introduce themselves using the photos.
“Which picture represents where you want to be at the end of the learning intervention?”
“What was one of the most important outcomes for you and which picture represents this outcome?”
“What have you decided will be your next step?
What are you going to put into practice in your daily life? Choose the picture that most represents this”.
