摘要:Democs (DEliberative Meetings
Of CitizenS) is a conversation
card activity developed by NEFw1,
with funding from the Wellcome
Trustw2 and the UK Department of
Trade and Industryw3, to promote discussion
of controversial topics in science.
Each Democs kit is written on a
specific topic and since there are no
right or wrong answers, players are
free to express their own opinions
without having any prior knowledge
of the topic. Players learn new information
(written and checked by
experts in the field), discuss the topic
with other players, and can vote on
the policy options they would recommend
to decision-makers.
