Ideas for collaborative activities in small groups / project-based activities for students on

the topic of Coworking Wellbeing
When it comes to the topic of coworking wellbeing, collaborative activities in small groups
can help students explore the importance of mental and physical health in a coworking

environment. Here are some ideas for such activities:
Wellbeing Workshop: Divide students into small groups and assign each group a specific
aspect of coworking wellbeing, such as stress management, ergonomics, work-life balance, or
creating a healthy workspace. Each group can research their assigned topic and develop a
workshop to educate their classmates on strategies and practices for promoting wellbeing in a
coworking setting. They can present their workshop through presentations, interactive
activities, and resource materials.
Wellbeing Survey and Analysis: In small groups, students can design and conduct a survey
to gather data on the wellbeing experiences of coworking space users. They can create a
questionnaire that covers aspects like stress levels, satisfaction with workspace ergonomics,
access to wellness resources, and social support. After collecting and analyzing the data,
students can present their findings to the class, discussing trends and suggesting
improvements for enhancing coworking wellbeing.
Wellness Challenge: Form small groups and challenge students to create a coworking
wellness challenge. Each group can develop a set of activities or goals that promote physical
and mental health within a coworking environment. These challenges could include daily
exercise routines, mindfulness exercises, healthy eating habits, or stress reduction techniques.
Groups can track their progress and share their experiences and outcomes with the class.

Wellness Resources Compilation: Assign small groups different areas of coworking
wellbeing, such as fitness, nutrition, mindfulness, or work-life balance. Each group can curate
a list of resources like articles, videos, apps, or websites that provide guidance and support for
individuals working in coworking spaces. Students can compile their resources into a
collaborative document or presentation and share it with the class as a comprehensive

wellbeing toolkit.
Designing a Wellbeing Corner: Task small groups with designing a dedicated wellbeing
corner or area within a coworking space. Students can brainstorm and create a layout, select
appropriate furniture, and suggest activities or resources that promote relaxation, mental
health, and physical wellness. Each group can present their design to the class, explaining the

rationale behind their choices and how it contributes to a positive coworking environment.
Wellbeing Awareness Campaign: Divide students into small groups and assign each group a
specific aspect of coworking wellbeing to focus on, such as reducing sedentary behavior,
