Week 5 Reaction by KU

This is a really special class for me as Michael and I are leading the class. Because of the time limited, we can’t make all the things we prepared in the class. Actually I have prepared one more game. I have been designing the game for a long time. Besides having fun, I wanted to bring some message to all of us through the game but I found it very difficult. I tried to change the rule of the game. At the beginning, it is playing individually. So we have all the people who fight for their own. In this case, I think it might be too competitive and I can’t think of the meaning of the game. Furthermore, it could be bored for those guys who lose the game in the earlier stage. Then I tried to run the game in groups. But it was still not good enough for me. Finally, we didn’t play it but I believe I will come up a better version of the game someday.

On the other hand, I really loved the icebreaker game we played yesterday. It was simple but meaningful. It brought the message of comparison. I am very sensitive to this word. If things go to a competition, it will be serious for me. It was not what I want to see in this relaxing classroom. So I decided to make it fun at the very beginning of the game. By the way, the team against us was really working very fast. I don’t like comparison but it is something always around us. Our HRE199 is a relaxing and gathering time with friends for me. No stress!
