By some counts, Model United Nations (MUN) has become the single
most popular extracurricular academic activity among high school
students. More than two million high school and college students
have assumed the roles of ambassador from real United Nations
member countries, participated in spirited debate about the world's
most pressing issues, and called, "Point of order, Mr. Chairman!"
Now, in Coaching Winning Model United Nations Teams, Edward
Mickolus and Joseph Brannan give MUN teachers and coaches the
information they need to succeed. In this informative volume, the
authors (MUN coaches themselves) provide detailed guidance for each
step of the MUN path, from the first meeting in the teacher's
classroom to the final days of an official MUN conference. Coaches
will learn about the ins and outs of parliamentary procedure and
the most effective ways to help their students draft position
papers and resolutions. Most important, Mickolus and Brannan
illustrate the many ways that teachers can inspire their students
to take an active role in making the world a better place. By the
time their students move on, MUN coaches will have instilled in
them such important qualities as empathy, self-confidence, and
grace under pressure. Coaching Model United Nations Teams is a fun,
useful guide for teachers and coaches who are working to help
develop tomorrow's leaders today. About the Author JOSEPH T. RANNAN
is the faculty adviser to the George C. Marshall High School MUN
team in Falls Church, Virginia. Before becoming a teacher, he
served in the U.S. Navy, worked as a newspaper reporter, and was
the assistant city manager for the city of Alexandria, Virginia,
where he resides. DR. EDWARD MICKOLUS has written twenty books on
international terrorist events and biographies of terrorists. As an
undergraduate at Georgetown University, he led MUN teams to
regional and national championships, and while completing his
doctorate in political science, he founded and coached the Yale
University MUN team and started the Yale MUN conferences. He lives
in Dunn Loring, Virginia.
