Activity 1

Role-Play

Pass out copies of the Disasters at Work Role-play Scenarios activity sheet. Explorers will be partnered for a role-playing activity. Each pair will choose one role-playing scenario from the activity sheet and will work together to create and present a dramatization of the scenario. (If you have an odd number of Explorers, note that scenario 9 requires three people and scenario 3 requires one person.)

Following each presentation, have participants discuss the scenario and the solution and determine if the most effective resolution was presented.
