1) Turn in your homework - make sure your name and block letter is on it :-)
2) Look at the "orphans" on the white board. Is one yours??????
NOW IT'S TIME FOR UTOPIAVILLE
VILLE: FREEDOM VS. SAFETY ROLL PLAYING GAME
GOAL: To fulfil your role in the community without regard
for your own personal bias – your role card has very explicit directions for
the part you are to play during the Town Hall meeting. You must achieve your goal – either change
the system (rebellion) or keep it the same (status quo).
HOW TO:
·
The citizen announcer will call the community
together at the Town Hall and exclaim that, “To insure the safety of all
citizens of the community, the elders have enacted new laws, new curfews, and
that a fence with electrocution wires will be built around the perimeter of the
town (to keep the people inside safe from the dangers that lurk beyond the
borders).
·
After the citizen announcer speaks, the citizen
elder and the citizen president address the citizens, reminding them of what
the world was like before Utopiaville was created.
·
Question and answers and opinions from the
audience.
RULES:
No aggressive, physical behaviour
Respectful, but determined conversation
Stick to your role goals – be strong, be weak, don’t waiver
from your goal!
HOW TO WIN: either FREEDOM wins (the beginning of a
revolution) or STATUS QUO wins and everyone goes home.
