# The Working out Loud

{% hint style="info" %}
**Ideal for**\
creative teams who want to be able to quickly sync with what other members are doing.
{% endhint %}

## Structure

A section in your comms tools where each member can have an open notebook / timeline where they share their thoughts and to-do's. 

For those who take random notes it's easy to replace note-taking tools with this 'working out loud' section.

### Examples include:

* A Discord section where every member has their own channel (and members use this channel to take notes about what they're working on). ![](/files/2DFWIo42sn1fFONHAx5P)
*

### Suggested When:

Creative teams who are working together to navigate the unknown.

### Known Pitfalls:

* Can be distracting and add to the noise organizations need to sift through if members aren't clear and concise with what they're sharing. 
* Members taking additional time to maintain their working out loud channels (editing & polishing text, etc). Suggested to have members simply replace their existing note-taking process with WOL to openly share their process and not add additional work effort.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://explore.joinseeds.earth/4.-organisation-tools-daos-and-dhos/communication-strategies-how-do-we-make-sense-of-the-world/the-working-out-loud.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
