Survival!: A Portable Simulation That Encourages Failure
Abstract This single-lesson simulation is designed to allow students to explore concepts related to bargaining, credible commitments, and the security dilemma in an anarchic environment. The simulation is designed assuming about 20 participants, divided into 4 groups, but is easily modifiable for either more groups or more participants. The goal of each group is resource acquisition, and a failure to acquire adequate resources can result in the elimination of group members from the simulation. Resource acquisition can be done either cooperatively or competitively. The design of this particular simulation is structured to make failure probable for a sizeable minority of participants. This design choice is intentional, as the simulation seeks to turn failure into a pedagogical device. Along with presenting the simulation itself, the piece also argues for the pedagogical merits of designing for failure in classroom exercises.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Political Science Education is an intellectually rigorous, path-breaking, agenda-setting journal that publishes the highest quality scholarship on teaching and pedagogical issues in political science. The journal aims to represent the full range of questions, issues and approaches regarding political science education, including teaching-related issues, methods and techniques, learning/teaching activities and devices, educational assessment in political science, graduate education, and curriculum development. In particular, the journal''s Editors welcome studies that reflect the scholarship of teaching and learning, or works that would be informative and/or of practical use to the readers of the Journal of Political Science Education , and address topics in an empirical way, making use of the techniques that political scientists use in their own substantive research.
