Learning Objectives
Sussy Swap excels at teaching communication, critical thinking, and emotional regulation. Frame each session with a clear objective: perhaps the class is exploring how to verify facts or handle disagreement respectfully.
Before launching a lobby, present the safety tools. Show how to mute players, report harassment, and enable family-friendly language filters so the environment remains inclusive.
Workshop Structure
Divide participants into squads with rotating facilitators. After each round, ask facilitators to summarize what communication patterns worked and what failed. The debrief transforms spontaneous fun into structured reflection.
Integrate written worksheets where students log their hypotheses and adjust them as new information emerges. It turns each match into a living case study on evidence-based reasoning.
Assessment and Reflection
Close the workshop with reflection prompts. Ask students to explain how they verified claims or calmed tensions during heated debates. Encourage peers to celebrate examples of empathy and clear communication.
Collect anonymous feedback to refine the activity. Over time you will build a playbook of scenarios, icebreakers, and house rules tailored to your classroom.
