***NOTE: THIS ASSIGNMENT IS PART OF YOUR FINAL GRADE FOR THE SIMULATION**

**THIS IS AN ASSESSMENT GRADE**

1. Answer THREE of the following questions. Answer each question using at least 2-3 complete and thorough sentences. As always, you are welcome to write more!

1. Which U.S. interests did the group or the president prioritize and why? Were you comfortable with this prioritization?

2. What techniques did you use to convince others that your policy position was the best option? What were successful strategies employed by others?

3. What were the most significant challenges to your position? Did any make you rethink or adjust your position?

4. What political, economic, and other issues arose that you had not previously considered?

5. How did the simulation change your perspective on foreign policy decision-making?

6. If you could go back, what would you have done differently in presenting and advocating your point of view?

2. Reflect on your participation. Which of the following skills did do well on / improve on today? Which one do you still need to work on? Respond using 3 complete sentences and and a specific example from the simulation.

Be candid, open and honest in my response in front of the whole class.

Present information verbally in a clear, concise, and logical way so that a listener can follow my line of reasoning.

Monitor your speaking time: If you talk a lot, make space for others / incorporate quieter students into the discussion. If you don't talk as much,

Reflect on what I’m hearing and respond directly to the points being made using corroboration, refutation or by asking questions that further the discussion.

If you disagree, disagree with the IDEA and not the PERSON. Also, disagree with respect.

3. What are two things you liked about the simulation? What are 1-2 things you would want to change for next time? (This can be adding something, taking something away, or changing something). Respond using 2 complete sentences and a specific example from the simulation.
