Scene 1: The Experiment Begins
[PPT Slide 1] Title: “The Real or Fake Apple Experiment”
Narrator (Student 4) (standing by the side, controlling the PPT):
“Welcome, everyone! Today, we have an interesting experiment for you. Socrates has brought a ‘mystical apple,’ and each of you will take turns smelling it and telling us what you perceive!”
(Socrates stands at the front, holding an apple.)
Socrates (mysteriously smiling):
“My dear students, this is a very special apple. Take turns smelling it and tell me what you sense.”
(PPT updates: ‘It’s your turn! Smell the apple!’)
Students Smell the Apple
- Student A (dramatically smells the apple and excitedly exclaims):
“Wow! This apple smells amazing! It has such a sweet fragrance!”
(PPT updates: ‘Student A – "Smells delicious!"’)
- Student B (takes a deep breath, frowns slightly):
“Hmm... I don’t really smell anything unusual.”
(PPT updates: ‘Student B – "No strong scent."’)
- Socrates (turns to the audience):
“What do you think? Should an apple have a fragrance? Let’s have a vote!”
(PPT displays: ‘Does an apple have a smell? Raise your hand!’ Audience votes.)
Scene 2: The Great Plot Twist
[PPT Slide 2] “Revealing the Truth – What’s the Answer?”
Socrates (smiling mysteriously):
“My dear students, the truth is… this apple is FAKE! It has no smell at all!”
(PPT shows in bold: “The apple is FAKE?!” Crowd reacts.)
Student B (smugly):
“I knew it! I was right all along!”
Narrator (Student 4) (building suspense):
“But wait… does this mean Student A was lying?”
(PPT updates: ‘Was Student A wrong?’)
Student A (firmly, shaking their head):
“No, no, no! This is a real apple! I smelled the fragrance! I know what I smelled!”
(Audience likely laughs, expecting an argument.)
Socrates (suddenly smirks, lifts the apple, and takes a big bite):
“Student A is RIGHT! This is a real apple!”
(PPT instantly switches to: “WHAT?! What’s happening?!” Audience laughs.)
Student B (shocked):
“What?! But you just said it was fake!”
Socrates (chuckles):
“My dear students, today’s experiment was never about the apple. It was about perception and belief. Student A dared to trust their own senses and stand by their truth, while the rest of you were influenced by what others said. That is the real lesson.”
(PPT switches to: ‘What is the Truth?’)
Scene 3: PPT Discussion – Truth vs. Rumors
[PPT Slide 3] “Truth in the Real World”
Narrator (Student 4) (clicks on PPT, pointing to the screen):
“We just saw how easily we can be influenced by others. Now, let’s think about real life—how often do we accept something as true just because others say so?”
(PPT shows a short video: A person at a pizza shop thinks someone stole their pizza, but it turns out they took the wrong one.)
(Video plays for 30 seconds, PPT asks: ‘Have you ever misunderstood something like this?’)
Socrates (engaging the audience):
“Have you ever been in a situation where everyone believed something, but you weren’t so sure? How do we know what’s actually true?”
(PPT Slide 4: ‘Have YOU ever been misled by a rumor?’ Audience raises hands.)
Student B (asking the audience):
“The internet is full of misinformation. For example, fake celebrity news or false health trends. How do you decide what to believe?”
(PPT shows headlines of recent fake news and rumors.)
Scene 4: Conclusion & Audience Interaction
[PPT Slide 5] “Key Takeaway: The Courage to Seek Truth”
Student C (Narrator) (delivering the final message):
“Today’s experiment shows us something important—”
(PPT updates to: ‘Dare to Trust Your Own Judgment!’)
Student C (Narrator) (asking the audience):
“What do you think is the best way to recognize truth and avoid being fooled?”
(PPT presents multiple options for audience discussion:)
- “Verify information from multiple sources.”
- “Think critically—does it make sense?”
- “Don’t believe everything just because others do.”
(Audience is encouraged to share their thoughts.)
Socrates (final remarks):
“The truth is not what people tell you. It’s what you discover, analyze, and verify for yourself. I hope this lesson will help you always seek the real truth in life!”
(PPT displays: ‘THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING!’)
