This week, Synthesis delves into the choices between challenge and comfort. In the “Proxima” game, students face team collaboration tasks where they decide whether to continue with challenging scenarios or return to easier ones.

“Proxima”游戏聚焦于学生对挑战与舒适的选择能力。第一个场景将非常困难,团队需要决定是重玩挑战场景,还是选择较轻松的路径以提升团队默契,最终再回到高难度地图。这种决策不仅锻炼学生面对困难的意愿,还帮助他们学会评估选择的价值。
The “Proxima” game focuses on students’ ability to choose between challenge and comfort. The first scenario will be very difficult, and teams must decide whether to replay the challenging map or opt for an easier path to build team cohesion before returning to the tough scenario. This decision-making process not only strengthens students’ willingness to face difficulty but also helps them evaluate the value of their choices.

挑战与舒适 | Challenge vs. Comfort

本周的讨论环节以挑战与舒适为主题,探讨如何在两者间做出选择以及这种选择如何塑造个人价值观。每个情境都提供“容易”和“困难”两个选项,学生需决定哪条路径更明智。这是一个没有正确答案的开放式探索,学生将在全球化的对话中学习从多种视角看待问题。
This week’s discussion session centers on the theme of challenge versus comfort, exploring how choices between the two shape personal values. Each scenario presents “easy” and “hard” options, and students must decide which path is wiser. This is an open-ended exploration with no right or wrong answers, giving students the opportunity to learn from diverse perspectives through global conversations.
