Tips
Report Backs
After groups have completed their work, they will be expected to report back. There are
different ways of doing this:
Round robin reporting: Each group presents only one point at a time going
round the circle until all the points are exhausted. The group reporter should
only give new points. This method helps to equalize contributions by different
groups and avoids repetition.
One group, one topic: Each group reports on a different topic or question.
Only one question: Groups report on only the key question discussed.
Creative report: Groups give their report in the form of a picture or role play.
Report back in paired groups: Sometimes you can have two small groups meet
and share what they have learned. The smaller numbers allow for a more
intensive discussion.
Recording on Flipchart
One facilitator should take notes on plenary discussion on the flipchart. This provides
a permanent visual record, helping participants see what has been discussed and what
needs to be added. Writing down points triggers other ideas; and provides the basis for
a summary of the discussion. Here are a few tips on recording:
Write only the main points or key words, not everything that participants say.
Use participants’ own words so that they recognize their own contributions.
Write big and clear (ideally capital letters) so people at the back of the room can see.
Use different colors, e.g., black for the main text and red for underlining key
words.
