Re: My Heroscape Class
Assuming you're not kidding, I'd be interested in knowing what bits you found sticky. I'm probably going to be distributing these in a read-these-and-try-to-understand-it way before classes next semester. Of course, it's way easier to explain in person because you can adjust the pace and go over any problematic bits in more detail, but the further it's possible to get prior to class the better.

Re: My Heroscape Class
Great way to introduce them to the game PK! I like to describe Heroscape as Chess but more fun. Regardless of whether or not that description fits, its seems to get people to stop looking at me like a just grew a second head out of my neck.
This is actually a great game for young minds because it teaches; Basic Arithmetic Sportsmanship Promotes creative thinking Communication Reading etc, etc, etc... I really have a difficult time with parents that don't allow or help stimulate a child's imagination. We'd still be living in caves and chipping away at a rock right now if it wasn't for imagination. Again, great job. |

"THE TARGET An area called the caudate nucleus, which studies show is activated when you become more trusting of an individual--or when you cooperate to gang up on an opponent THE TASK Players coordinate offenses with allies and stage attacks on enemy forces to win a simulated version of World War II. THE TAKEAWAY 'These games require an assessment of whether people are cooperating with or competing against you,' says [Scott Huettel, Ph.D., an assistant professor of psychiatry at Duke University]. 'In a semicompetitive work environment, you have to decide whether you're going to work on the same team as someone or undercut them to get ahead.'" So there's some more "facts" to throw at those parents As a teacher, I also applaud your efforts to "mix things up."

Re: My Heroscape Class
Cool! I wish I could do this at my homeschool co-op, but most of the moms there are vehemtky against magic and violence, so we always end up playing stupid games like tag or hot potato. Ick.

Well, I took out a bunch of things; zombies, vampires, the elf wizards, etc. It helped that none of the parents knew about the game, and so knew nothing about certain units being in. If any of them ask how much it is, where to get it, whatever, I'll just have to warn them beforehand. At least HS isn't blind purchase, eh? |
