UP AND  AWARE - 8

                Collaboration means working with one or more
                persons to create and achieve something, solve a
                problem and take decisions.

                When people collaborate, they help each

                other to learn more than they already know.

                Collaboration enables everyone in the group
                to think creatively.





                        Exercise and Discuss:

                Form groups of four learners. Each group will get a picture which is a part of a bigger
                picture. Each big picture will be cut into four parts.

                The facilitator will hand over one picture to your group and you must not let the other
                groups see it.

                                                             Your task is to find the other three groups that
                                                             have the other three parts to complete the picture.

                                                             You can do this only by describing the picture.

                                                             You CANNOT show your picture to the other
                                                             groups.


                                                             When you think you have found the three
                                                             groups that have the parts to your picture, go to
                                                             your facilitator and show him/her your picture.
                                                             Without showing the pictures to the groups, he/
                                                             she will put together the four pictures and let you

                                                             know if they make the whole picture. If they do,
                                                             he/she will let all the groups look at the pictures.
                                                             If not, he/she will ask you to return to the

                exercise. You will follow the same rules again. Play this game with honesty and fairness.
