Back on Google Docs for a minute and how to track participation: I really enjoy using it in my simulation, but I have to be somewhat strict about how they interact with the docs so that the exercise doesn't dissolve into chaos. I provide the text of an agreement we are negotiating in a Google Doc (in my case, the Nagoya Protocol of the Convention on Biological Diversity), and I instruct students not to use the "comments" feature in the margins, but to edit the text directly, using their own chosen color coding system (e.g., a color for the text and a color for highlighting - so their edits stand out) and they are instructed not to "delete" text, but to use strikethrough, so that everyone can see the edit). Then, at the bottom of the text being negotiated, I have a "comments" section, where each delegate has to identify and justify their edits (again using their chosen color scheme, so I can track who did what - if they don't explain their edits, they don't count). This makes it fairly straightforward to gauge their participation. Of course, when multiple delegates want to edit the same phrase, it can get confusing, so they often resort to presenting draft language in the comments section at the bottom.
I create a separate Google Doc for each article we negotiate, which also gives them the chance to focus on the one(s) that are most relevant to their delegate/position. Right now, I teach about 20 students and I use four articles. When I taught a similar simulation with 100 students, I used more articles and students were grouped in tutorials with TAs, so it was manageable on the instructor's end. That's the autonomous online component, we also meet "in person" (whatever that will be this year) to debate/discuss and vote on the language - the different aspects (online, in person) facilitate different students' participation as well. I have a couple of pedagogical publications on this simulation from when it was the larger model that I'm happy to share, if anyone wants to see them, or if you want to know more about how I approach it with a smaller group, feel free to contact me using my work email: [email protected] E. -- Elizabeth M.
