Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Rocket: A Simulation on Intercultural Teamwork is an interactive simulation that helps participants develop and hone important intercultural skills. This remarkable tool is a fun and interactive way to train people for working in diverse environments. It is based on qualitative interviews conducted at NASA's Johnson Space Center with astronauts, flight directors, flight controllers, engineers and trainers from the American, Russian, Japanese and European Space Agencies. Rocket mimics the real-life interactions and politics of the International Space Station Program and requires simulation participants to work together to build a model rocket. The simulation is designed for use with groups from 13-25 participants, but it can be modified for use with groups as small as four or as large as 30. Participants are divided into four groups (Americans, Russians, Japanese and Europeans) and each given a set of rules that they must follow when interacting with each other. The rules include culture specific information as well as political and economic objectives. Each group is given a specific rocket part to build and asked to work with the other agencies in assembling the rocket. After building the rocket a debrief session occurs where participates are able to process their learning.
