This webinar series is designed to emulate a "fishbowl conversation." A fishbowl conversation is a form of dialogue
that can be used when discussing topics within large groups. The advantage of fishbowl is that it allows the entire group to participate in a conversation. Several people can join the discussion.
There are several kinds
of discussions, for example an "open", "closed", or moderated discussion.
In an open fishbowl, any member of the audience can, at any time, join the discussion. When this happens, an existing member of the fishbowl must voluntarily leave the discussion. The discussion continues with participants
frequently entering and leaving the fishbowl. In a closed fishbowl, the initial participants speak for some time. When time runs out, they leave the fishbowl and a new group from the audience enters the fishbowl. This continues
until many audience members have spent some time in the fishbowl. Once the final group has concluded, the moderator closes the fishbowl and summarizes the discussion. A moderated fishbowl runs for a certain period of time with
the inner circle. The moderator stops the discussion in the fishbowl circle and invites those not in the inner circle to offer their thoughts and comments on what they are hearing in the inner circle. In an online forum (webinar), the chat functionality will be utilized to allow participants in the audience the opportunity to share their thinking.
We invite you to join the discussions and share your thoughts, concerns, and ideas. Learn more about upcoming conversations below.
