How to use this page during the Summit

This page is your team’s shared workspace and final report-out page. It captures your group’s process and thinking throughout the Summit and will be used to share your work with others.
Use this page as your team’s working record during the Summit and your final report-out.
The Summit has several different goals and thus you will use the page differently each day: Day 1 is for alignment, Day 2 is for building one useful thing, and Day 3 is for synthesis and report- out.
Look for the green buttons to indicate what you need to edit.
Megaphones 📣 indicate which items you will be presenting during the end-of-day report-outs.
Only the items with megaphones will be visible when you hit the 'Summit Report Out' button.
If you turn off 'Instructions' then you will only see the page content for public display.
