Week 1

A. Building a profile: Who are you and who am I?

The rules are very easy for this exercise and they are as follows:

  1. You have to go up to the board and write down the answers to all of you questions. Thus, in order to know about me, you need to ask me a lot of questions. Make sure to categorize your answers (personal, professional, education, social, etc)
  2. You have 30 minutes to ask me questions to learn about me.  Ask questions that you would typically ask someone to get to know him/her.  They can be professional or personal in nature or BOTH
  3. Be creative when asking questions.
  4. Let me know when you have finished asking question by saying something like: That's all the questions that I have for now.
