An icebreaker is an activity or game designed to welcome attendees and warm up the conversation among participants in a meeting, classroom setting, team-building session, or other activity. Any event that requires people to comfortably interact with each other is an opportunity for an icebreaker. We’ll focus on the post-secondary classroom setting, both online and face-to-face. We’ll introduce you to a few “low-risk” icebreakers and provide an opportunity for participants to share some of their favourite tried-and-tested icebreakers with peers.
Kindly note that refreshments are not provided.
