Traffic Lights
Traffic Lights is a quick feedback method where participants use the colors of a traffic light (red, yellow, green) to indicate their understanding or agreement with a topic. This provides a visual snapshot of the group's sentiment.
Use this as a quick and easy way to gauge understanding, agreement, or progress on a topic, especially when needing immediate feedback from a large group.
Solves: Difficulty getting quick feedback, lack of clarity on understanding, need for a simple and visual feedback mechanism.
