The World Cafe model: Everyone wears a name-tag. The room breaks into groups of five. A question is put up on the board. Each group table has a large piece of paper-- large enough for everyone to write or doodle on. The group spends 15 minutes deliberating on the question at hand. When time is up, 4 people leave to find new tables, while the 5th stays behind-- this person is now the "table host". New groups of 5 are formed. The table host takes the first 5 minutes to debrief the new group on what the old group discussed. Then a new question goes up on the board, and the pattern repeats.
A variation on the model: Everything as above except that instead of the same question being discussed by every table, each table has a unique question that stays with that table. The table host is responsible for taking notes and compiling information.
