Evaluation While the participants are replying to the evaluation questions, it would be useful for them to show everyone else their drawing. Suggested questions to evaluate the exercise: What was it like doing the drawing? What did you feel? What did you think about? How did you behave when it became clear that your tasks were at odds with each other?
