The method
Use these prompts in new or stagnant online communities. Tailor the icebreaker to the group’s theme. Post in a general channel, and encourage replies by responding to the first few. Observe responses to identify popular themes for future content.
The prompts
Prompt 1
Imagine you are a community manager tasked with revitalizing a Facebook group for amateur photographers. The group has seen declining engagement lately. Develop three unique and engaging icebreaker prompts specifically designed to encourage members to share their work, offer constructive feedback, and connect with one another. Each prompt should be distinct and cater to different aspects of photography, such as composition, subject matter, or technical skills. One prompt should focus on recent achievements, another on learning goals, and the third on sharing resources.
Prompt 2
You are facilitating a virtual book club focusing on science fiction literature. Design two icebreaker prompts that encourage members to share their favorite sci-fi books and explore thought-provoking themes related to technology, society, and the future. The first prompt should focus on the impact of a specific book on the reader's perspective. The second prompt should encourage members to predict future technological or societal advancements based on the books they have read. The goal is to foster engaging discussions and create a sense of community among book club members.
