Recollecting

Recollecting involved coauthoring an experience report of the team dialogue, after the in-person residential period has ended.

"In the follow-up phase, teams are responsible for preparing executive summaries and full reports of their achievements. To the extent possible, these include answers to the triggering questions posed at the outset, as well as action plans. However, just as often they include insights and directions that were not foreseen. Where those insights are more individual, participants may append brief statements to their team’s full report. Proceedings are prepared, but with the explicit desire for the teams to share their work more broadly, for example, to publish a version of their report in a scholarly journal."  [Dyer, Jones et al. (2015), p. 44]

The milestone artifact can serve as a starting point for the recollecting.  The lead organizer and associate organizer may refer to historical IFSR Conversation Proceedings for clues as to styles for expressing the learning.
