Materials
One set of questions and answers for each team
One set of questions and answers for the scorer
Pencils and paper for the groups to write down their answers
A scoreboard
Instructions
Divide the group into two teams: these should be as diverse as possible in terms of
gender and region.
Explain that the activity is an energetic team game to find out how much participants
know about the Euro-Med region. Show them the rooms or spaces where
each team will work and indicate where the base will be located.
Explain the Rules of the Game (see below); then ask the teams to go to their separate
rooms or spaces, leaving one member behind to collect the first question.
Give the team members the first question card, which they take back to their
teams to discuss.
When a team representative arrives back at the base with the answers, add up
the score and put it on the scoreboard. Give them the answer card to take back
to the team, along with the next question card.
When one team has completed all the cards, allow the other team time to finish.
Add up the scores at the end and bring both teams together for debriefing and
evaluation.
Debriefing and evaluation
Begin by asking everyone how they felt about the activity.
How well do you think your team worked as a group?
Did you feel it was more important to get the right answers or to finish all the
questions before the other team?
Were there disagreements? How did you resolve these?
Did you learn anything new or surprising?
Did you learn anything useful?
Which sources did you draw on to answer these questions? Do you think these
sources are reliable?
Which other sources could you draw on to find answers to questions such as these?
