How to make friends (and then plunder their gold!) (Stage 3, Stage 4, Stage 5)

How will you amass the greatest treasure? Plunder your enemies? Or trust your friends? Learn all about the risks and rewards of cooperation and competition in this thrilling game for the whole class.
ACTIVITY OUTLINE:
Trust makes the world go around, so learning how to make good decisions about trust is a vital skill for life.
In this workshop students play ‘Bards and Bandits’ against their classmates, organically testing their intuitions and ideas about who to trust and why to trust them, and developing social strategies to emerge victorious!
Facilitated by Mark, a psychology researcher, students then interpret the real-time game data from their own class to discuss and learn about how trust is built and lost, reputation and consequences, risk and reward, and ultimately develop a better understanding of their peers and the world around them.
More schemes than game of thrones, guaranteed!
