Leader: Please divide participants into two groups for this
activity. Keep track of the time as participants move through
the different five-minute sections of this activity.
Divide into
two groups. Each group will be negotiating for control of half
the meeting space. Each group has five minutes to decide
which areas it wants (and why) and to select three representatives
to negotiate. The six representatives will have three to
five minutes to negotiate their "land deal." Then
spend the remaining time (approximately five minutes)
discussing the exercise as a group. What factors influenced
your selection of desired space? How did negotiations proceed?
Be thinking
of the factors influencing conflict and cooperation in the division
of space as you watch the video program.
