    Studets are given a number of values (honesty, trust, openness, cooperation, creativity, knowledge, family, fun, health, frindship, love, responsibility, wisdom, truth, wealth, power, dligence, kindness, benevolence, ...) and they have to decide which value is the most important for them. Students are then given some picture materials and they have to find out which values can be found on the pictures.
