Each Instructor’s Book  contains detailed directions for preparing students in advance, organizing the logistical details, creating teams, and facilitating one of CulturesCrossing’s simulations.

You can have as few as six or as many as 60-70. The author has run simulations with over 300 students and with as few as seven. Each individual role-play packet can be ordered by the student via PayPal for the cost of $19.00. The simulations are flexible enough so that you need not have perfect numbers as suggested in the simulations’ directions.

In Olin Life in China: After the Pandemic, 5th edition and Annamay in Mexico, an instructor can use the materials as self-contained exercises.  All CulturesCrossing simulations contain extensive bibliographies.

We recommend that students buy their role-play packets at least two weeks before the actual simulation.  Students and participants need that time to read and digest their information and instructions.

The actual simulation can be run on a single day, or two-three consecutive days, with a minimum of 3-6 hours allotted for the full exercise to take place.

Many instructors have successfully varied the methods for running a CulturesCrossing simulation. Please contact or more information.
