Scenario 2 Blog Post Assignments

Your tasks for today include all of the following.

Survival Craft Blog Post, Scenario 2, Day 2
You are to write ONE blog post that includes all of the following.

  1. Help each other and get help from each other--share on your blog post.
  2. Take a screenshot of being in a shelter at night--share on your blog post.
  3. Take a screenshot of agriculture--share on your blog post.
  4. Make sure nobody starves--share experience on your blog post.  
  5. On a scale of 1-10 (10 being the maximum), explain how much YOU have contributed to the health, happiness, and survival of the community--share on your blog post. 


Options (You must choose one of these and write a separate blog post):

Options Blog Post

  1. Journal - Create a book inside Minecraft. Inside the book, write a journal about your experiences from the perspective of your character. Copy the text into a separate blog post as well.
  2. Mapping - On a physical piece of paper, map the "island." Take a photo or photos of your map and post it on your survivalcraft blog in a separate blog post.
  3. Lord of the Flies Write a separate blog post about what you've done, seen, felt, or experienced in this Minecraft experience that has been Lord of the Flies -ish. This can be in the game or outside the game. Think about interactions, fear, struggles, debates, mistakes, problems, whatever. Use specifics from the novel, if needed.
  4. Teaching - Take a classmate "under your wing" and teach him or her some skills needed to survive in a dangerous Minecraft world. Document the experience in a separate blog post. 
  5. Dare to Stay Civilized challenge.  Document the experience in a separate blog post. 
  • Level 1: BASIC. Maintain two characteristics of civilization: cities and agriculture. Document by screenshot once they are created and again at the end of the experience--your creations need to be maintained!
  • Level 2: ADVANCED. Apart from maintaining a small city an agriculture, add division of labor (different members of your group with specific jobs) and religion. Screenshots of cooperative work and religious buildings/artifacts are acceptable as evidence, as well as written descriptions/captions explaining or summarizing your screenshots. 
  • Level 3: EXPERT. Apart from cities, agriculture, division of labor, and religion, add written language (books/signs) and art (art can vary and can include architecture). Screenshots and captions should explain the significance of the creations, and examples of written language should demonstrate forethought and creativity (poetry, for example).
