After the Story
Have students compare their choices and the endings they reached.
- Remember some students may have played the story several times and reached different endings.
Next, have students access the student chapter Questions and have students answer the questions in the Structure Strip activity.
Have students share their answers:
Which choices did you make the first time?
How did you feel about those decisions?
Which choices were harder to make than others?
Which choices turned out best for Violet? How about Sameen? Which turned out best for Laura?
How can we draw the line between playing against someone in a game and being mean to them?
Does it make a difference that Sameen had done something to annoy Laura first?
Does it make a difference that Sameen is a new player? Does it make a difference that Violet thinks he may be younger than she and Laura are?
What effect could it have on the game if everybody acted like Laura?
Ask students to connect the scenario with their own experience:
- Have you experienced a situation similar to this before?
- If so, how did you handle it?
- Based on what you learned, how could you have handled it differently?
Have any of them played Cyber Choices before? If so, what might have changed since the last time they did?
