Along For the Ride

I did post one memo a few weeks ago.

I’m pretty nonchalant about a particular system, because I believe all of us have some great ideas up our sleeves.

However, I do like the idea of tricking the students. We can start in an auditorium style classroom and Kim can act as the teacher with her powerpoint and monotone lecture. The students will probably be unexcited and become bored pretty quickly. Once we don’t have their attention, that’s when we’ll switch gears and prep them for a game. College is full of surprises and opportunities, so why not start now?

I also like the idea of putting on quests. Social media and phone apps are always popular, so they’re using a system that they can gain familiarity with very quickly. We just need to edit the quests and add more that focus on downtown businesses and Chico points of interests.

In order to divide them into groups, when they “check in”, they can be assigned a color. That way, they’re guaranteed to meet new people.

As for a “point system”, it’s been unanimously noted that we must create something new. I’m sure we can think of something.

I can’t wait to get started on this!
