Zekai's most recent reflection achievement
Natural Election is back for one week only, and the change in pace this game offers will create opportunities for you to reflect on your
team mindset. When playing, do you tend to be more optimistic or pessimistic? Can a person¡ªand a team¡ªbe both?
Be sure to check out the
Synthesis Mission Brief
for more details, including clips from interviews with our first five Supercollaborators!

You¡¯ve been around Synthesis Teams long enough to know that good
communication means more than just talking to your teammates.
It¡¯s about being thoughtful in the
way we communicate: using
teammates¡¯ names, being clear and specific, and asking clarifying
questions. It¡¯s about speaking up
and responding to others.
This month, we¡¯ll take a closer look at these important aspects of
teamwork as we examine your
productive communication skills.
We¡¯ve missed you in Play sessions the past few weeks! We know that schedules can change, and we hope that we¡¯ll see you in Play again soon.
In the meantime, have you checked out your portfolio progress in your student portal recently? Click on the ¡®portfolio¡¯ tile to see a list of the achievements you¡¯ve unlocked. And be sure to watch this week¡¯s Mission Brief for a preview of what to expect in Play!
Observations based on your participation in Play sessions in 0 of the past 4 weeks.
On your journey to make any team you join better, you'll practice how to effectively communicate with everyone. Our Discussion sessions are carefully designed to provide opportunities for you to practice these critical communication skills in various ways.
Last week's theme was
"Life on Mars."
The possibility of interplanetary human life is closer than ever. And with that possibility come the hard questions: the risks, trade-offs, and opportunities. We asked students to work through six of those, from the use of water to the need for security. No right or wrong answers, but in putting their minds to the problems of a Martian future, students strengthened their ability to solve the problems of the present, right here on Earth.

Reflection for Zekai: What does balanced communication look like?
Productive communication and effective teamwork go hand in hand. Because you were unable to attend a Discussion session last week, we can¡¯t provide a current analysis of your strengths and areas for growth in your communication skills. To ensure our feedback is timely and relevant, we focus on your most recent conversations during Discussions.
In Discussion sessions, you¡¯ll learn how to craft an educated opinion and express it civilly to peers from around the globe. We encourage you to attend upcoming sessions so we can help you develop your communication skills further.
This week¡¯s theme is ¡°Look on the Bright Side?¡± In six scenarios, we¡¯ll explore the trade-offs between optimism (a focus on potential benefits) and pessimism (a focus on potential problems). And because life has both rewards and setbacks, it¡¯s important for students to be aware enough ¡ª and agile enough ¡ª to look through each perspective when needed.
No right or wrong answers. Just interesting conversations with kids from around the world.
Anyone who's on the path toward becoming a Supercollaborator is able to keep improving their skills and making course corrections. We look forward to seeing you at future Play + Discussion sessions, and we'll continue giving you feedback on your teamwork and communication skills.
