Reading Circle Toolkit
Facilitator instructions, meeting formats, a six-session path, case mapping and a closing-action worksheet.
Facilitate responsibly
State the purpose, time and ground rules before discussion. Do not require disclosure or allow unsupported accusations.
- Distinguish experience, interpretation, allegation, documented fact and opinion.
- Apply the same standard to allies and opponents.
- Protect confidential experiences.
- End with one preserved question or specific next action.
Choose a format
Use the time available without sacrificing ground rules or the closing action.
- 30 minutes: one passage, one focused question and one closing action.
- 60 minutes: map the framework, discuss one question and reflect on action.
- 90 minutes: individual reflection, small-group work, whole-group discussion and case mapping.
Six-session path
Move from the complete framework through each C toward interruption and action.
- Framework and shared cycle map.
- Culture and public responsibility.
- Corruption beyond private access.
- Citizenship and the Unknown Citizen Test.
- Contentment, complacency and hidden costs.
- Breaking the cycle with one demand and return date.
