How long will it take? The session plan has been designed around ~20-30 minutes of preparatory work (which can be conducted as an asynchronous pre-session activity) followed by a 60 minute group based workshop activity, hence an overall total activity time of 90 minutes.

a) Preparation: (~30 mins)
Before engaging with Part 2 (a group-based workshop activity) we recommend that participants engage with Activity 1 (~30 mins). This could be undertaken as a pre-workshop asynchronous activity.
b) Session Plan (#8) (~60 mins activity)
