Objectives: The goal of the activity is for students to gain self-awareness related to the ways in which humans (consciously or not) alter their self-presentation depending upon the context, thereby maintaining different “faces” (Goffman, 1967). Also, this activity aims to highlight effectiveness related to different modes of nonverbal communication in different settings.
