ISAGA Summer School on Facilitation and Evaluation
The ISAGA Summer School from 26/09/2022 to 30/09/2022 will highlight the two topics of "facilitation & debriefing" and "evaluation & research" in the field of simulation games. We start the week with common simulation game experiences. This will then serve as a basis for further activities. We want to bring the participants into dialogue, set impulses and move forward together.
Experienced trainers will lead through workshops, role plays and keynote impulses addressing methods, tools and the mindset of facilitation. The program is framed by excursions and fellowship.
The Summer School is hosted by the Centre of Management Simulation at the Cooperative State University in Stuttgart, Germany. Partners are ISAGA and SAGSAGA as the local SAGA Association.
