Quest - game “In search of the key of knowledge.” Extracurricular event for Knowledge Day.

Hello, dear guys!

Congratulations to you, your parents and teachers on the beginning of the new school year! I’m very glad to see familiar faces from class 4a. This means that together we will continue the interesting but difficult path to the Land of Knowledge.

Of course, my friends and I will help you “gnaw the granite of science.” At the same time, each student needs to find his own secret approach to studying different school disciplines.

Today I have prepared many interesting challenges for you. If you cope with them, you will learn this secret. You will find the “Key” to the “Casket of New Knowledge”. Make up your mind. The journey will be fun and educational.

Ready?

Then have a good trip!

"School quest. From idea to practical implementation

»

Currently, the development of a positive motivational school environment can be considered a necessary condition for improving the quality of education. Motivation is responsible for the child’s active position in learning and personal development.

To help increase students’ interest in the subjects they are studying, to try out a new form of organizing extracurricular activities and intellectual leisure, to create conditions for the development of children’s creative abilities and their self-affirmation - the authors chose the implementation of the “School Quest” project as one of the ways to solve these issues. This is a modern type of intellectual team games that requires productive generation of ideas and non-standard solutions. Psychologists say that quest technology improves the perception of educational material, contributes to the moral development of the child as an individual, and can stimulate the mental and moral development of children. Quests are a great way of group interaction. Participants in the game have to interact with each other, analyze available information, use dexterity, erudition and all their skills. The child discovers new abilities and character traits, while receiving vivid emotions and unforgettable impressions. And, what is especially important, quests take children out of virtual communication into real ones. But the process of creating a quest is even more exciting. When developing a quest, everyone is given the opportunity to gain experience in project activities by involving them on a voluntary basis in the development of an interdisciplinary gaming space at all stages: from idea to practical implementation.

About the project. The goal of the project: to meet the needs of children in engaging in socially significant activities, creative development, improving educational and cultural levels, self-realization, as well as the formation of moral qualities, developing children’s self-government, increasing the motivational environment of the school by creating a play space and its further operation.

The goal is achieved by solving the following tasks:

1. identifying and uniting creative youth;
2. organizing practice-oriented activities for students by involving them on a voluntary basis in the development and creation of an interdisciplinary gaming space;
3. the use of gaming space to organize intellectual leisure for students who are not involved in its development and creation.

The solution to the first task includes holding information meetings with schoolchildren, working with promotional materials (advertising stand, announcements, etc.), uniting interested youth within the framework of a school club, which opens up opportunities for the development of children’s self-government, communication with peers, and the formation of moral qualities, informal communication between teachers and students.

Solving the second problem implies:

• choosing a quest topic,
• development of projects for intellectual tasks of interdisciplinary gaming space and their implementation,
• design of the playing space.

The correct choice of quest topics allows you to increase interest and motivate children to study a particular block of disciplines.

Developing projects for intellectual tasks allows you to reveal the creative abilities and interests of children. When implementing project assignments, a more in-depth study of certain issues is required, which undoubtedly leads to the study of additional literature, cooperation with specialist teachers and parents. Practice-oriented activities of students allow them to realize their own importance, raise self-esteem, and self-realization.

Work on the design of the play space contributes to the formation of a positive attitude towards work and the development of aesthetic qualities.

The implementation of the third task, related to the operation of the created gaming space, involves completing intellectual tasks as a team in a limited time. This makes it possible to organize intellectual leisure for children who are not involved in the development of the quest. Difficulties that arise when passing through the play space also contribute to children’s interest in the disciplines they study.

Contents of the project implementation stages:

1. Identifying and uniting creative youth

• holding information meetings with schoolchildren
• working with promotional materials (advertising stand, announcements, etc.)
• bringing together interested youth within a school club

• their discussion;
• uniting participants into creative groups and assigning tasks to them;
• detailed study of each task with the preparation of a technological map for its production and a list of necessary materials, tools, equipment;
• if necessary, study additional literature, consultation and cooperation with specialist teachers and parents;
• making changes and adjustments to the game script.

1. Implementation of assignment projects

• acquisition of necessary materials;
• performing technological operations to implement project assignments;
• testing of tasks, with their further refinement if necessary.

1. Design of the playing space

• design of the premises;
• placement, fastening, installation of tasks;
• design of the final game script.

1. Play space testing

• completing the quest with trial teams;
• identifying shortcomings in the work of the quest and eliminating them;

1. Preparation of documentation for a school quest

• development of a project passport;
• development of business cards, memorable badges for winners.

1. Operation of the playing space

• team completion of intellectual tasks in a limited time;
• game support;
• maintaining the play area in working order.

Results of practical activities:

When implementing the project

• an interdisciplinary gaming space “School quest “The Secret of the Third Planet” was created, consisting of 2 locations and containing 14 tasks. Brief scenario of the quest: “Alice, the main character of the famous remake story by Kir Bulychev, again goes on a space expedition, where she encounters a problem that only the quest participants can solve within one hour. They will have to penetrate a secret laboratory located on Earth, collect fragments of the encrypted code, decipher it and send the password to start the engines to the spaceship.”
• The play space is operated regularly. Teams are formed from students in grades 8-11, teachers, and school guests. Only positive feedback was received from players who completed the quest. Players note the variety and excitement of the tasks, the interesting scenario, the atmosphere of the quest and the high level of design work. And it is extremely important that these works were carried out by their comrades and teachers. Some guys have already expressed a desire to participate in the creation of a new play space.

The results allow us to consider the experience gained positive. Prospects for further work in this direction include modernization and modification of tasks, as well as the creation of new projects. The authors continue to search for interesting forms of extracurricular activities that will help increase interest in learning and unleash creative abilities.
