The “In Living Color” simulation is designed to immerse participants in the world of writing; it presents a scenario which requires discussion and writing about substantive subject matter. In this scenario a group of talented writers have discovered a startling trend. Participants will take on the roles of living authors, tackle a complex objective and learn to work together. They will discover new personal skills and realize their personal situation and potential.
This scenario is specifically designed to grapple with postmodernism; the current and popular ideology sweeping our country. Participants will be introduced to all related scenario themes gradually as they work through the preparation materials.
Simulations are scenarios in which participants take on roles and experience life changing events. Participants will be expected to dress for their role, this may require costumes etc.; the SI staff will help each participant get into character. This Simulation will begin with a brief introduction from our fictional dignitary “Samuel Lewis” they will then precede into the scenario following the agenda outlined in the preparation materials. The participants will have prepared for a month before they come each participant will then be prepared to represent his or her respective role. There will be an objective which must be reached as a body.
The staff at Simulations Institute will be on hand to assist participants and make sure they have a life-changing educational experience. The “In Living Color” simulation lasts two hours minimum; participants will be given 4 assignments involving reading, writing, and speaking. Education is such that we receive rewards equal to our investment; this is especially true regarding simulations. Participants should be able to prepare in approximately one month, utilizing a moderate amount of free-time. This simulation was designed for adults and experienced students ages fifteen and older unless joined by a parent in the simulation; exceptions will be made for younger students willing to pay the price for academic excellence.
Once registered, participants will receive a letter of invitation from the “dignitary” Samuel Lewis explaining the situation, the objective and the history behind the scenario.
