An ice breaking session is an activity, game, or event that is used to welcome and warm up the conversation among participants in a meeting). The purpose of an ice breaker is to encourage group members to be present and get things started on the right foot, energizing everyone and helping them ‘arrive’ mentally and leave behind whatever task or thought they were previously working on. Ice breakers are designed to help the participants get to know one another and build rapport, but that doesnt mean they cant also be work and results focused. Ice breakers can range from simple one-question answers to elaborate team games. They can be used to help acquaint students with course content and expectations, warm up online learning spaces, and orient students to the online environment. An ice breaker should be related to the subject or the purpose of the meeting).
