Teach Public Interest Communication
Activities
Please describe any classroom activities you feel would be helpful to include in a public interest communications curriculum.
Here is a write-up about running simulations in the classroom – Bafa Bafa is about cultural differences and Star Power is about the use and abuse of power. They have primary lessons in social science (cultural lens and abuse of power) but have clear takeaways for PIC. Students have responded and rated these simulations the highest of any activity I’ve done (and highest when others ran them, not me): https://teachingdatabase.humanrights.uconn.edu/2019/01/24/simulating-in-the-classroom-part-i/#
