Workshops

All this week and the end of last week we have been working on these creativity workshops. Each team came up with a different creative task that the class had to complete. Our group had the class split off into 3 groups and come up with their worst possible day on campus. We gave the groups about 10mins to brainstorm. The rules were that everyone in the group had to participate, they had to act out their worst day, they could use anything in the classroom as a prop, and their skit had to last 3 to 5mins. All three groups came up with some pretty funny skits, and I would not have wanted any of those things to happen to me if I was having a bad day. The creativity workshop that I liked the best was the group that had us protect our "egg". We were given an "egg" and two cups. We were told that we had to come up with some way to protect the egg because it was going to be dropped from approximately 8feet above the ground, and if it was not protected it would break. Our group made a pretty strong enclosure, and we used newspaper inside and outside of the cups to act as a cushioning for our egg. Apparently our protection was not strong enough because our egg broke. Regardless of that fact it was still my favorite out of the creativity workshops.
