Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: In my Latin American politics courses, students explore concepts and theories through a variety of role-played simulations. Students advise Brazilian President Lula da Silva on economic policy, prosecute (and defend!) ex-dictators in Guatemala, plot a coup against Venezuelan President Hugo Ch�vez, and even run corrupt campaigns to win the 2006 Mexican elections. In another class, students test the claims of the democratic transitions literature through a simulation of institution-building in post-war Iraq. In one scenario, U.S. Administrator Paul Bremer found it impossible to mediate the conflicting demands of actors like the Iraqi National Congress and the Kurdish Democratic Party, resulting in a collapse of negotiations and renewed violence in Iraq. But rather than using published or instructor-created simulations, these simulations are created, directed, and evaluated by the students themselves, from start to finish. Such student-created simulations are one of five types of "student-centered curriculum" described in this paper that put students in charge of major parts of their political science education.
