Meaning of introduction, icebreaker, and examples

An introduction is the initial part of a session or meeting where the facilitator welcomes participants, outlines objectives, and sets expectations. It helps create a comfortable and focused learning environment.

An icebreaker is a short, fun activity designed to help participants relax, get to know each other, and feel more comfortable engaging in group discussions. Icebreakers are especially useful at the beginning of a workshop or training to build trust and encourage participation.

Examples of Icebreakers include:

• “Two Truths and a Lie”
• “Would You Rather” questions
• Quick sharing of names and one fun fact
