While the debriefing session does not need to be overly formal, it should follow a clear process that guides learners from experience to insight and application. Follow a simple reflection structure: experience, analysis and application.

• Begin by helping participants recall and describe what happened during the game
  This phase allows everyone to share their perspective and ensures a common understanding of the experience. Questions at this stage should focus on facts and feelings, such as what tasks were most challenging or how the group worked together.
• At the next phase focus on analysis
  Encourage learners to think about why things happened the way they did. Guide reflection on decision-making processes, communication, leadership and problem-solving strategies. This is also the moment to discuss difficulties, mistakes and conflicts in a constructive way, emphasising learning rather than blame.
• The final phase is application
  Support learners in identifying what they learned and how it can be used in real-life contexts, particularly in social entrepreneurship. Focus questions on how the skills practised during the game relate to working in teams, managing limited resources, addressing social challenges or making ethical decisions.

Combine group discussion with opportunities for individual reflection. Open-ended questions, active listening and a respectful atmosphere help participants feel comfortable sharing their thoughts. Your role is to guide the conversation, not to provide all the answers.
