*Because of copyright issues I have not included examples of real world ‘leaders’ however I would recommend doing so to contextualize the issue for students.
This lesson gets students to discuss what an ‘agenda’ is, and then they have to create one together acting as different stakeholders.
The roles are not included in this PPT, however I previously got students to base their activity around the potential opening of an airport. I have added in a video clip that interviews local residents, this could be used to brainstorm the different stakeholders in this situation before planning out the agenda and conducting the meeting (each student acting as a stakeholder in the scenario).
