Well, that’s a bit hard to follow but gotta start somewhere.
My friend and colleague Julian Carver has been using coloured stickers to get people to rate ideas or proposals in face to face sessions. I’ve used this too.
He discovered that this is called Dotmocracy. Coop Tools have developed a technique called Advanced Dotmocracy that scales for large groups and have written detailed instructions.
We become so accustomed to being able to rate things easily online. It’s useful to remember that there are good ways to do this offline, too.
