Crocodiles in the Atrium -- ethics and communication
Summary / extract + keywords:	Have your students read a short fable about someone needing to cross a crocodile-infested atrium. Students then individually rank characters in the fable from least evil to most evil. Sound familiar? Finally, students compare their rankings in groups of four. They learn about how they interpret situations and stories differently. This exercise has proven to be a useful introduction to issues of communication and ethics.
