Two Truths and One Lie for E-Learning #313: Challenge | Recap
In a recent training webinar, someone compared my weekly challenges to a giant campfire where designers gather to show and share e-learning ideas without worrying about being bit by mosquitoes. I thought that was a pretty cool analogy.
I hope one day we’ll find a way to gather around a real campfire and share e-learning stories. In the meantime, there’s a lot we can do online to practice our e-learning skills and learn a little more about one another.
E-Learning Icebreakers
If you’ve ever worked in the corporate world, you likely played the team-building game, Two Truths and a Lie.
It’s a classic get-to-know-you game where people reveal two truths and one lie about themselves. The objective is to guess which statement is false.
Challenge of the Week
This week your challenge is to create a playful interaction using the Two Truths and a Lie icebreaker game.
Possible variations could include Two Truths and a Dream. Or go with your favorite icebreaker game to share a little about yourself. Here are a couple examples from a previous challenge:
Two Truths and a Lie with Joanna
I like the newspaper design concept Joanna Kurpiewska used for her example. Using existing photos, Joanna created a bulletin board with three news articles. Check out her e-learning example to learn which two stories are true and which one’s a lie.
Two Truths and a Lie with Phil
Think you know everything there is to know about Articulate Super Hero, Phil Mayor? You might be surprised after his e-learning icebreaker. Check out his creative example to see if you can uncover his two truths and a lie.
