Activities that use MURAL to replace in-person props, leading to easy and creative remote remote facilitation, contributed by facilitators like Sam Killermann.
Place a central concept that you want to explore at the center of your Mural board. Have participants use stickies to generate all the ideas, themes, and sub-categories that branch from it. Encourage them to continue to explore those sub-themes, creating more branches extending out to the edges of the board.
With all your potential options written on sticky notes in your mural start a dot voting session, where participants will move dots to their chosen sticky. Once everyone has voted (or time is up), review the results. Repeat for additional rounds, removing stickies as you go if desired.
Have everyone open up the MURAL board and tell the group you’ll be filling it with as many ideas as possible as fast as possible (or could set specific goal like 100!). Have everyone join the MURAL and find their own space. Provide the prompt for the group, and ask them to ideate around it. Then have everyone generate as many stickies as possible, one idea per sticky.
