Preparation Guide

1. Purchase Materials

2. Choose a timing and venue

4. Prepare materials before a workshop

5. Set up before attendees arrive

Timing¶

Venue Requirements and Considerations¶

requirements:

• sound system proportionate to the audience size

• table to hold bins

• place to put the poster boards

tips:

• a long table or a short table + a chalkboard/whiteboard ledge works well

• make sure the items can be high enough for the audience to see

Material List¶

• at least 8, better 20+ bins large enough to hold up to ~30 ping pong balls

• ping ping balls in 5 colors

• sticky notes in matching colors to the pingpong balls (enough sets of colors for each group + the facilitator set)

• paper that is in contrast to all 5 colors (1 per person)

• poster boards to post generated documents

• tape

• (optional) durable bin labels instead of tape

Advance Material Setup¶

1. Create material sets to make passing out paper and stickies easier

2. Pre-label bins if possible

Setup¶

1. Label 2 sets of 4 bins

2. Set up a pretrained model, aim for 20-40% end-of-document (white, here) balls
