The Gapminder Casino is a superb activity for delegates at the GA Conference 2011
Go over to the Austin Pearce building for a chance to play during #gaconf11
You need to get there at a time when colleagues from Gapminder are manning the table..
The idea uses a projector which enables an image to be projected onto a flat surface, and 'players' have to guess the final position of the Gapminder trace for a particular country and a particular set of variables that have been explained.
There is also some interesting discussion as to the likely reasons for changes in the patterns of particular variables.
I particularly like the casino chips... we should have some GA ones made up
