Explain your solution
The solution I proposed was to make a fence in
other to protect the sheeps without hurting the yashores. Even though it will
take more time and effort from the people, none of the animals will be
affected; for instance, the environment won’t be damaged for the destruction of
these animals, considering that every animal has its own function in the
planet. In other words, everything is a chain.
Explain if others agreed or disagreed
At the beginning, there were so reluctant to do
something. They said the fact of putting fences will take space out for the
sheeps, they didn’t have time, they need the land for future constructions,
etc.
At the end, all the people in the colonies
agreed with the solution of the fence because even though it will take time for
their parts, they will be able to have their animals saved and protect the environment
at the same time.
Everyone is happy and nobody is hurt.
Explain how useful this game would be in our context
Over all, the game is a good way of having
students interacting with real facts. In our context, this can be applied very
well because it is very interactive and allows students to think in different
areas, and be part of the process itself. This is a nice combination because as
they are part of the process of making a decision, they start analyzing and
coming up with different points of view, and they are playing, all at the same
time. In general, it is something that for me gives the students the
opportunity to develop critical thinking and analyzing skills.
Would you do it with your students? Why yes/no?
I will definitely take it into consideration
because of the reasons I already gave. The level of commitment of the students
is higher as the complete game activates their schema and motivation; besides,
it is a game. They won’t realize all the areas they are covering, but indeed
they will be constructing and making their own chooses
