Transfer: An Intraurban Residential Migration Game.
Rabiega, William A.
Introductory materials for an intraurban residential migration classroom game and appended game materials are designed for use as an introduction to an urban geography course or an illustration of social processes and methods in a behavioral geography course. The introduction explains the game organization and play, details the concepts it is designed to illustrate, and outlines the possible directions of classroom discussion. The general organization of the game is divided into segments for player and operator. Contents of the player's packet, operator's packet and equipment are elaborated. After being assigned an occupational role, each player is issued a personal profile and is placed in a particular neighborhood. The player activity section details how each player establishes a personal pointage goal for the game, earning a point total by a ratio of money to environmental satisfaction points. The operator activity section describes the responsibilities of setting equipment, directing play and leading discussion. Expected results, concepts for discussion, probability and random operators, and possible extensions of the game conclude the introduction. (Author/KSM)
