Can you use games to improve brainstorming, collaborative, and critical thinking skills? In the game, you play one of 7 different roles, serfs living in a small village in the year 1023.
There are dangers that threaten the lives of all who live in the village, as well as opportunities to improve the living standards of some or perhaps all residents. Players are part of teams that have to come up with a solution to the problem. For each problem, each team receives instructions on how to conduct their meeting, and thus are exposed to the 9 different strategies.
Through experiential learning, discussion, and reflection, players will hone their ability to innovate and reach constructive decisions with a group. And have a lot of fun.
This is a condensed introduction to using MindShifting, through working together and applying strategies you will discover new ways to interpret your own, more contemporary approaches to problem solving.
We are also looking to recruit people for a full 3 hour workshop, at a later date, as part of the ASN’s ‘Creativity offers us a new formula for life project’.
