    Abstract

    This paper describes a simple activity that can be used in helping team formation within academic change projects. The process of team building is vital whatever the potential future may look like, and whatever project(s) may come out of the envisioning process – be it the development of a new e-learning strategy, implementing new technologies or systems, or redesigning curricula to take advantage of the opportunities presented by e-learning. Using the approach described, project teams are given the task of expressing their vision of the challenges (or “rock”) confronting their project through a visual representation in the form of a poster (the “paper”). Rather than drawing a poster, the team works together to assemble images cut from magazines, sharing scissors as they work.
