ScriptRONR or how to have fun!

Jacob sent a response to a previous post asking about the Script file I talked about. Sorry I took so long to answer it.

The Script program contains basic scripts for many of the motions. I did not cover all 86 motions found in RONR, but I did cover all the major ones and many of the less common ones. I do keep updating this file.

The file works very simply. All you have to do is click on the table of contents and the formula for making the motion shows up. The picture for the Main Motion shows the most basic style that only shows what the chair says. It tells you a little more than just what say for the motion being made. Other considerations are included.

The picture for Renewal of Motions shows one that has both the wording for the maker of the motions. Wording for the Member is in Red while the wording for the Chair is in Black. Even somebody with color blindness should be able to read it although they might not see the colors.

The idea is that the user of this chart will get the idea of what must be included in the motion that he wants to make. It is not a hard concept to absorb. I have tried this with my university students in Japan and they got it. Using the Script program along with the Motion Chart program mentioned before made it easy for the students to understand what I was talking about. They were quickly able to make the motions under discussion that day.

This program is not a freebie. If you are interested in find out about it, send an email to ParliamentarianCorner@gmail.com and I will get back to you. The cost is $50 for each program. If you want both, it is $100.

I hope this gives you some ideas about these programs.
