Description

What is a Problem Solving Workshop?

We have problem solving resources that can be used indoors and outdoors.  Working in small teams (up to 10) there are a range of physical and cognitive tasks to explore team dynamics and the process of plan-do-review.  This session can also be presented as a fun competition between teams.

Each problem solving task lasts between 10-20 minutes and we can select the tasks according to time available and the objectives of the session.

A minimum of 1 instructor can run the session (s) and have either support from teaching staff (keeping the cost down) or extra Outdoor Elements instructors.

A session would be a minimum of 40 minutes up to 90 minutes.
