The setting is based on our SCPA CED classroom and work settings. The scenarios are inspired by the enthusiasm and resistance to change. | |||
=== Pre kiwi party === | |||
Bee, Arnie, Bev, Irene and Thor walk into the classroom. | |||
Bee: I’m not so crazy about this kiwi idea. I already spend too much time in front of my computer. With the school work AND figuring out… I am really not so sure… | |||
Arnie: Y'know, this technology thing ''sounds'' great but I'm terrible with computers, the last time I tried to use one it burned my toast badly. | |||
Bev: I am DEFINITELY really interested because we could participate remotely in meetings in the evening and on weekends and holidays, also on lunch breaks and while showering, with the right equipment. | |||
Irene: That's not exactly what kiwi is about.. how about I have a kiwi party to try to make this all clear? | |||
Thor: Excellent, more control means greater efficiency. | |||
Bee: Sure, but I'm only free Tuesdays between 5 and 5:30. | |||
=== Post kiwi party === | |||
Bee: Hey Thor, How was the kiwi party? Irene was telling me about it. Did you go? | |||
Thor: I didn't go.. if we're going to use computers, we should all be assigned one and given training and enforcement until we do things the proper way. | |||
Cindy: Wow, what if that doesn't work for someone? | |||
Thor: They should be sent to a reeducation classes until they do things the proper way. | |||
Cindy: So Irene, what exactly is kiwi? | |||
Irene: It's software based on the Web, you have to learn a few conventions, but it helps you solve a lot of different problems as a group or when including the public. | |||
Bee: It sounds very interesting and might be helpful for our affinity group and really help my community organizing. | |||
Bee: Yes, well maybe we should try it. Won't some people be excluded? | |||
Irene: You have to make sure to include those people using different means. | |||
Thor: They can be reeducated. | |||
Arnie: Computers are dangerous. Couldn't we do all this with the fax machine? | |||
Cindy: I am still not so sure about this. | |||
Bev: Yes, we definitely should do it. Bureaucrat Today says everyone else is doing it (holds up a copy of Bureaucrat Today with a caption "Kiwis: Everyone else is doing it.") | |||
