Establishing Objectives Specific goals and objectives are developed to determine the content of the seminar material. Each program is a one-of-a-kind event. Selecting Role Players Individuals from the group are selected to play the roles of the key suspects. They are supplied with all information about their characters. Formulating Teams Investigative teams are designated to work together during the investigation. Reviewing the Information Each person is given a personalized Casebook which contains important information and clues about the crime. Planning the Work Using the Casebooks, team members create cohesive plans to guide their activities during the investigation. Conducting the Investigation Suspects are introduced and made available for questioning. Teams must utilize sound communication techniques and interpersonal skills to acquire as much data as possible and interpret the data. Reacting to Changes Additional unexpected critical information is provided to the teams, changing the dynamics of the event. Arriving at Solutions After all information has been analyzed, the teams reach individual solutions about the crime, the motive, and the situation. Processing the Information The actions of the teams during the investigation are processed, tying them to the objectives established for the Mystery Seminar. Planning Action Individual on-going action plans are developed by participants to enhance both the learning and the impact of the Mystery Seminar. About the Chief Inspector . . .
