Room, Walls, Whiteboards
- People will be organized into table-teams, averaging 5 people per team. Thus, we need NumStudents/5 tables; e.g., 6 or 7 tables if 35 students. The tables are ideally in separate islands, circular or square, with a team at each.
- Don’t make it a crowded room; there are a number of activities/exercises that involve the teams moving around.
- There are several wall activities/exercises, involving flip chart paper or PostIt Note layouts; each team needs some unencumbered clear wall space for this.

- Tables should not be against the walls; we are using the walls as a main working area in this course.
- Distribute the tables throughout the room
