TABLEtalk - Moral Maze

Not 100% sure about other people, but I thoroughly enjoyed TABLEtalk this week.  We had 22 students from nine different nationalities.  Our theme was 'Moral Maze' and in groups students began by brainstorming moral values that were important to them, but also with the thought in mind to list values that would promote healthy community/team.

Before feeding back to the whole group, these smaller groups were asked to reduce their list to what they considered to be the TEN most important.

Once we collated everyone's responses, this was our final list:


And this is the point at which my finely tuned plan for the evening turned in to something quite different. As we displayed these values and stood around, there began the animated and occasionally heated discussion as to which TEN of these values the whole group would choose as most important.  

As you can imagine, with 22 people from different cultures, different life experiences, it was a challenging task to all fully agree.  We also discovered there was a some significant differences in our understanding of particular words.

Below, in no particular order, is our final list of ten ...

To be honest, I would've loved to video the entire evening and then play it back for students to see 🤔🤔🤔
