4. Mentoring How it works: Pair up a more experienced delegate with a
less experienced delegate. The more experienced delegate should
act as a mentor and guide the new delegate through the procedures.
Be careful for the more experienced delegate to not be too dominant
Pros:
Gain confidence
Cons:
Dependence
Best time to introduce it: first few sessions

5. Prompt
How it works: You write the position and the goal of the country the delegate is representing. You give them the paper, but ask them to not share it with anyone. Their aim is to include their goal in their final resolution.
Pros:
Can improve negotiations skills
Improved resolution writing
Cons:
Doesn't require development of research skills
Best time to introduce it:
First few sessions
Before conferences

6. Impromptu
How it works: The delegate comes in front of the room and is given a topic. The delegate has 90 seconds to write a speech and present it for 3 minutes. The topics at the beginning can be basic such as “What is your favourite letter in the alphabet?” to more complex “Is urbanisation good or bad? Why?”
Pros:
Improve speaking
Fast thinking
Cons:
Might be stressful for beginners
Best time to introduce it:
After everyone is comfortable with speaking in public

7. MUN Conference Simulation
Chaired formal debate
Pros:
Real MUN experience improving different areas
Cons:
Requires large number of participants
Good time to introduce it:
After several sessions of basic training
