In the meantime, we must rely on the little ascii diagrams to provide the visual concepts. An AMOD committee sits facing a long wall on which the competency model chart is built. Committees can be as few as 3 or 4, or as many as 20 or more. Larger groups sit in two rows, and many members stand and stretch at times throughout the workshop. The coordinator sits facing the committee and records ALL statements, places them on the wall, and later moves them several times as directed by the committee.
Members never touch the materials on the wall.
The long table serves as a barrier. It is also for writing notes and for cups and glasses. Large cards containing General Area of Competence statements are on the right near the coordinator, to frequently bring members' attention to them during the workshop. To begin, the committee creates the GACs or General Areas of Competence. They are lettered on large 4x6 file cards.
