vol3 How? Run of Show(Me) STF
Stacy Neier Beran
Inspire & celebrate the next purpose-driven generation of business designers
A Friday Play Date is always The Best Day. Whether we are wiped from the week or energized for the weekend, Friday Play Dates soften the classroom edge for everyone (including me!). As workplaces normalize 4-day work weeks and no email Fridays, classrooms should also reconsider the role Fridays play (??) in course schedules. Think Summer Hours perk during School Year work. Here's how the perspective of play unfolds.
Run of Show(Me)How to Friday Play Date:
???Hands: We generate adjacent project work
???Heart: We discern aspirational project work through a wider lens
???Head: We reflect on actual project work & how to re-engage again
All Hearts on Deck
I love acronyms. (Think By Design uses TBD as a manifesto for uncertainty and celebration.) So, during Monday’s Advisory Board meeting, when Brendan Creamer budded BLUF, my head went to Dscout 's excellent Spontaneous Talks Frameworks breakdown. My heart went to STF acronyms on Conversation Hearts. Friday Play Date, Valentine’s Edition bloomed into a sugary rose.
The Engaged Learning students submit Research Proposals next week. Desk research, done. Research Question, written. Research Objectives, outlined. Yet their decks need love. Squads need a custom rubric that shows how ready for research they actually are.
Here’s today’s Run of Show(Me) How to STF a Research Ready Rubric:
1?? Pick an existing STF, one that inspires the entire research squad
2?? Create a squad-specific STF, one that organizes how the squad views quality
3?? Reflect on the Research Proposal through the STF Rubric: is the deliverable Research Ready?
4?? BONUS: Use the STF as the squad's official name! For example, "Squad STF" will brand & differentiate all deliverables.
Hearts for the World
I’ll invite students to comment on STF rubrics here, opening their hearts and some LinkedIn love for the world. Get ready for digital roses. Come for the conversation, stay for the convo hearts <3
