We are pleased to finally be in a position to post some outputs from the second colloquium for the AC+erm Project to our website. We would welcome any comments you may wish to make on these outputs or on any other aspect of the colloquia or the project as a whole.
This event focused on the ‘Process’ facet of the project and was held on 26 March in the REP conference centre in at the Birmingham Repertory Theatre. Over 30 delegates attended, adding to and extending the data from the e-Delphi data in a series of discussion forums.
Forum 1—Delegates were asked to consider and comment on the full list of issues from the SLR and Process e-Delphi study, and to add any issues they felt were missing.
Forum 2—Delegates were divided into six groups; each group was allocated a single issue for discussion and asked to comment on the solutions that had been proposed through the e-Delphi study.
Workshop—The delegate groups were asked to evaluate and comment on three draft vignettes/tools based on the solutions offered in the e-Delphi study.
The first was ‘Fridge Frases’ or ‘Fridge Phrases’, where words and phrases are available in the style of ‘fridge magnets’ to form issues and ideas for training sessions, brainstorming, etc.
The second took the form of ‘rich pictures’ – issues or problems are encapsulated and explored through pictorial representations, in a flexible and non-linear manner.
The final type of tool was a story – issues or problems are presented through a ‘personalised’ narrative, from a particular perspective (in this case, of a systems user).
In each session, the delegates were asked to make notes and/or appoint a rapporteur to report back from the discussion; the initial issues/solutions list plus the collated notes of the rapporteurs and individual delegates form the outputs from the colloquium.
