  7. ADVISORY SESSION- logistics • The expert adviser desk is set up at the side of the room – please go there first and place your table tent on the desk. • You are allocated to the teams for the first advisory mini-session (20 mins.). Please visit the team at their table right after the opening of the advisory session. • You are allocated to different teams for the second advisory mini-session (20mins.). Please move to the team table after the first 20 minutes into the advisory session (upon a signal from facilitators) • After the second mini-sessions you take your advisory desk and wait for another (different) team to come for a session (up to 10 minutes). You will be invited to their table. The facilitators are responsible for keeping the teams coming. Please stay close to your desk (and table tent) when you are not advising a team (so that the facilitators can see you are available)

  8. ADVISORY SESSION • To have many ideas before the selection of the ONE! • Where are we now? (problem/situation/history) • Look for something to talk about and stick to it, rather than to communicate everything! • The best questions start with WHAT, HOW and WHY! • Try to understand what the pupils say, mean and think!

  9. ADVISORY SESSION • Great tolerance for the unfinished! • There are no definite recipes • The meaning of any communication is the response • To help the others to find the right way • The most important verbs in educational practice are no longer “to talk”, “to explain” or “to transmit”… but “to listen”

  10. ADVISORY SESSION • Short questions! • One question at the time • Wait for an answer • Don`t be prejudiced • What sort of questions create enthusiasm? • Do not answer your own questions…

  11. THINGS YOUR ARE GOOD IN • Design and make your personal table tent (for display on your table at your advisory session) that would promote yourself and make it easy for students to identify what asistance they can expect from you • The table tent should contain your name and top three things you are good at. • Be creative, think of all the things that will help participants identify how you can best help them in developing their innovative solution.

  12. ADVISORY SESSION FINALLY • Go through the “challenge” and discuss it • Take a good look at the concept paper template the students will be using • Go through the evaluation criteria that the judges use

  13. CHALLENGE • <<insert the description of the challenge here>>

  14. JUDGING CRITERIA • The content of the concept paper (30%) • Innovation and creativity (30%) • Quality of the presentation of the solution (30%) • Team spirit (10%)

  15. What have the students done already? • They have been mixed in the groups – different schools, different classrooms, first time in such setting for many of them • They have had two hours with teambuilding and creativity • They have been working in teams just for 1hour! • They do not have a concept (business plan) to discuss yet and we need to make them develop their ideas some more
