Joel Barker's Strategic Exploration Simulations^™

Research

The first piece of research on the Strategic Exploration Simulations comes from over 170 college students who participated in the Sexual Harassment Simulations.  Here's a summary of the results:

• 98% said the experience was successful or very successful at increasing their learning about sexual harassment.

• 99% said the experience was successful or very successful at teaching them about "cascade thinking."

• 98% said they evaluated possible consequences, positive and negative.

• 96% said they experience input from multiple points of view.

• 67% said it was "significantly different" from other discussions they've had on similar topics.

• 21% said it was "dramatically different."

• 96% saw implications that they would not have thought of on their own.

• 95% learned something from their teammates.
