BFA implementation guide: The pros and cons of taking BFA individually or as a group
As a group
Pros
- Good learning opportunity
- Individuals may learn about existing institutional efforts of which they were not aware
- Additional epiphanies triggered by other responses
Cons
- Time-consuming
- Groupthink may suppress individual voices
- Potential scheduling challenges
Individually
Pros
- Get purer baseline of knowledge
- Engage more individuals, especially those who may be less likely to speak in a larger group setting
- Efficient, time-wise
Cons
- Each member may work under different definitions of terms/scale
- Individuals may not know if or how deep something is happening in an area where they are not involved
