== Increasing participation through handsignals == | |||
{{background|text= | |||
Handsignals can make meetings run more smoothly and help the facilitator see emerging agreements. Three simple signals should suffice: | |||
* '''Raise a hand''' when you wish to contribute to the discussion with a general point. | |||
* '''Raise both hands''' if your point is a direct response to the current discussion. This allows you to jump to the head of the queue, so use it wisely and discourage overuse! | |||
* '''Silent applause''' - when you hear an opinion that you agree with, wave a hand with your fingers pointing upwards. This saves a lot of time as people don't need to chip in to say "I'd just like to add that I agree with..." | |||
