When facilitating either a group experiential (or a one-to-one session), it really helps me to stay attuned to what is happening, and get the pacing right for a group, if I can see both the participants and their paper.
The very best way we’ve found for this to work is:
- use a laptop, as these can easily be moved
- raise it up onto a box of pile of books or a box
- place it at the far end of your table (ideally to one side, not facing)
- angle it down to show both you and your paper
The top left picture below shows the ideal setup – the others show a few alternatives – but to the side works best. 
OTHER THINGS that help me see clearly are:
- sit near the router OR use an ethernet cable
- in daylight, sit facing or side on to a window, not with your back to it
- after dark, have good lighting in the room
(NB this setup is simply to enable the me to stay follow where everyone is in the process. Please be assured that within a group everyone will be busy with their own drawing, not looking at you/their screen.)
So, a plea – please experiment in advance to find your setup, in order that we don’t take up too much time in the session with this. Thank you!
