When there’s a lot to teach or share, it’s tempting to do ALL the talking. But what if there was a FUN way to hand that work over to your learners?
Our newly revised Jigsaw Protocol gives participants the chance to break into smaller groups to explore one “piece”🧩 of a larger topic or chunk of content, gaining some “expertise” through deeper exploration, discussion, and team collaboration 🧐, and then sharing their discoveries with everyone in the room. The “pieces” come together to create a fuller picture, making learning more engaging, collaborative, and memorable! Great to use in classrooms or with teams of colleagues!
Cover more, talk less while your learners work together to explore, discover, and put together key focal points!
Our Jigsaw Protocol was newly revised in 2026 and is available here for FREE! Download our abbreviated version of the Jigsaw Protocol as an image or a PDF file below, or sign up to become an Annual Member of the NSRF to find the fuller version (and much more!) in our online Members’ Protocol Library.
