| "We are much more
likely to act our way into new ways of thinking than to think our way into
new ways of acting". Karl Weick said that, and I agree. It
particularly holds for culture, which is usually unconscious and fraught
with taboo. That is

Exploring Culture: exercises, stories, and synthetic cultures, that you could use as an easy introduction to culture, or to create
simulation games that include cross-cultural interactions. Also in Dutch
and ... Bulgarian, Estonian and Slovene. The publisher,
Intercultural Press, also has lots of other similar books.
A few other simulation games that I have made
public are
I have also created a number of special-purpose
simulation games. Some of this work is published in
ISAGA conference proceedings. |
