During facilitated small-group conversations, facilitators have to manage many tasks, including handling the technology, managing time, following the script, and more. Facilimate is a digital support tool that helps facilitators handle the mechanics of facilitating a conversation (i.e. managing time and following a conversation guide). We applied a user-centered design approach to create Facilimate, which involved getting feedback from facilitators while brainstorming, concept sketching, wireframing and implementing.
