Expected outcome:

    •    Students can evaluate the actions of characters from a legal perspective.

    •    They will understand the link between human rights and science/technology.

    •    They can express their opinion in short, clear written form.

Type of literacy used:

    •    Legal literacy (human rights, justice, responsibility before the law).

    •    Functional literacy (working with text, analyzing, drawing conclusions).

Explanation of the game:

The narrator reads a short passage from Frankenstein about Victor and the Creature. Then students are given  4 tasks with answers on the next page and three open-ended questions (about Victor’s actions, the Creature’s rights, and the connection to modern times). Each student writes 2–5 sentences as their answer. There are no “right or wrong” answers – everyone can share their own view. At the end, 2–3 volunteers share their responses with the group.

My dear sister,

I write to you from St. Petersburg. Soon, I shall sail to the frozen seas in search of glory and knowledge. The cold does not frighten me; my heart burns with ambition.

Pray for my success.

Your brother,

Robert Walton
