Hi All, In a pinch, feel free to have students check out the multimedia materials of The Social Rules Project at rulechangers.org. The film is 10 minutes long and the videogame (on institutions and the politics of tropical conservation) is about 1 hour of play. They can also construct their own "institutional landscapes" like those in the "see your world" link by taking a day-in-the-life image of their choosing from the web, and creating a powerpoint presentation researching the institutional underpinnings of the scene. There is an educator's guide on the landing page.
