Online Language Learner Workshop
For the activity I created an scenario of a Language Learning Online Site and implementing new features, and include free and paid plans. The tool I used is FigJam and added some interactive elements for voting and sticky notes, so it's mainly aimed for a remote workshop. I created this workshop plan as a coordinator:

Your workshop planning appears thorough and structured, which is commendable. I appreciate how you've outlined templates for preparing deliverables by the workshop's end.
However, for a workshop of this duration, breaks are necessary to ensure participants remain engaged and refreshed.
Regarding the user testing segment, I have a couple of concerns. Firstly, allocating just 30 minutes might not be sufficient for comprehensive testing. Secondly, user testing is a complex process requiring careful planning, including recruitment strategies, test scenarios, and participant numbers. Given that prototypes are developed during the workshop, it's essential to consider how to effectively plan and execute usability testing under these circumstances. This aspect of the workshop could benefit from further exploration and planning.
