The need for these experiences has been widely embraced,and the vehicles for achieving that goal have taken many forms [1].No single program, or even one type of program, will achieve these goals alone. A multi-pronged approach, with many different aspects is necessary to reach students [2], [3].

This ability, coupled with theparticipant having Becky’s vantage and mirrored body movements, enables participants to feelmore immersed as the actual character. Although the evolution of conversation is dependentupon the selections of the participant, there are key statements made by the professor that areindependent of the participant’s response. These statements reflect what is constant in allinteractions. Specifically, all constants in the dialogue involve at least one of the followingconcepts—(P)rejudice, (R)acism, (I)mplicit bias, (S)exism, (M
