Abstract:
|
One of the most common challenges confronting those of us who teach international relations to resistant student populations is engaging students in meaningful dialogue regarding important concepts and issue areas. The use of simulations in the classroom has proven to be an effective way to provide resistant populations with the opportunity to not only explore new issue areas, but develop crucial skills required for the study of international relations. Simulations set the stage for interactions both within and among student groups. Simulations provide points for dialogue for students and instructors. This presentation will focus on the use of simulations in the classroom to teach in the following areas: conflict management, negotiation, problem solving, and ethical decision-making. |
