  1. Cooperative Games that Embrace Diversity Brian Culp, IUPUI and John Strong, NCCC

  2. Basics regarding diversity

  3. Single person task Identify two characteristics/behaviors that YOU believe are unique to six of the areas of diversity that you most identify with (e.g. for Parental Status I might choose, “I have attended my child’s athletic event” or “I have changed a diaper”; notice that that the first is far more exclusionary than the second)

  4. Pair and Share Explain to a partner of your choosing WHY you believe these characteristics are unique to the areas/demographics you chose (how do they distinguish themselves from “the other” within that area?)

  5. Captain’s Calling First choose a captain. Each round begins with the players standing at attention, giving crisp salutes. When the captain calls out "At ease," the players can drop their hands to their sides. The captain begins to call out sailing-themed commands, and the players pretend to do them -- but only if the captain has first called out "Attention!" and they have saluted. If a player follows a command when he was supposed to be at ease, it's man overboard for him. The last crew member left standing wins and becomes the new captain.

  6. Group Activity Rock Hopping In this episode participants will create a circle with a single member in the middle. The leader (standing outside of the circle) will begin the game by asking if, “you have ever…”. Those who have will move and those who have not will maintain their positions. If the person in the middle does not move or is replaced, he/she must ask the group if, “you have ever…” regarding something they HAVE done so that they may move out of the middle; and so on…
