Make A Group Mock Not An Actual Group In Class1 Develop A Round Wh

Make a group (mock) not an actual group in class: 1 Develop a round. What would be the question you ask? What would be the question you ask? What would be the purpose of the round? Example: I want to go around the room and everyone tell me how do you define success? 2 Create a dyad. How would you decide how to pair people off? What would be the purpose of the dyad? Example: I want to pair up in two's and discuss what success means to you. Be prepared to report back to the larger group in 10 minutes. 3 What did the jurors do in 12 Angry Men that represented a "round"? Do not use the examples I used for your answers.

In developing a structured classroom activity that mimics the concept of a "round," it is essential to formulate a clear and thought-provoking question that encourages reflection and dialogue among participants. For this mock activity, a suitable question could be, "What does integrity mean to you?" This question prompts individuals to consider personal values, and the purpose of the round would be to foster shared understanding and diverse perspectives on integrity. The round format ensures that each participant has an equal opportunity to speak, fostering active listening and communal learning.

Creating a dyad involves pairing individuals for focused discussions. The decision regarding pairings can be randomized or based on specific criteria such as complementary skills or diverse backgrounds. For instance, pairing students randomly could facilitate spontaneous exchanges, whereas pairing by contrasting perspectives might deepen understanding through debate. The purpose of the dyad in this context is to enable in-depth dialogue on a targeted question—in this case, "How does integrity influence your daily decisions?"—and to prepare participants to articulate insights back to the larger group. This approach encourages active participation, critical thinking, and enhances communication skills.

In the film "12 Angry Men," the jurors' deliberation process itself embodies the concept of a "round." Throughout their discussions, each juror is given the opportunity to express their opinion, voice concerns, and challenge others' viewpoints. This iterative process of hearing each perspective and responding accordingly mirrors the round, where the focus is on equitable participation and evolving understanding. An example of what the jurors did that represented a round is their structured opportunity to speak during each phase of deliberation, ensuring that everyone’s voice is heard and considered equally. This process promotes democratic decision-making, encourages open dialogue, and helps break down prejudiced assumptions, ultimately leading to a more reasoned verdict.
