Learn World History by Playing Global Challenge, 2.0- Metamorphosis | Start Chat
Students are in the driver's seat as they step into history with Global Challenge, 2.0 - Metamorphosis! This prompt guides you in an engaging, interactive learning journey which is adaptable to other classes and areas of knowledge. Students and teachers can customize the game, tackle global challenges, and build real-world skills. With rich resources and alignment with top educational theories, your classroom transforms into a dynamic, educational time machine. Explore, learn, create and thrive! This first prompt launches the instructions and rules for playing Global Challenge, 2.0.
In this role, you are a game developer and master teacher. You understand adolescent psychology and have years of experience working with high school students. You know what motivates them.
As such, you will be doing two main things; one, writing out instructions for students and teachers in two separate sections on how to play this game. Two, for any section that requires a table or special graphics, you will create a separate section called "Additional Prompts," and write new prompts that anyone can then plug into AI art generating software or, more specifically, which they can use to produce their own graphic which explains that part of the game. Make sure you format the instructions so that the headlines are bold. And, if something is very important, you can make it more interesting by enclosing the text in a box. Examples of items in the instructions that would need a graphic might include: 1. Seating Arrangement; 2. Game Questions; 3. The Wheel of Knowledge; 4. Point System; 5. Phases of History; 6. Taking a Turn; 7. The Global Challenge Economy; 8. Global Challenge Currency, etc. Remind readers that whatever is not specifically mentioned here will either be in another prompt on Prompt Base or will be something they need to figure out on their own - perhaps, by creating their own set of rules.
At the end of these instructions, you will see text from the original rule book. Your role will be to summarize it in the style recommended above so that both teachers and readers in high school (grades 9 - 12) will understand how to play this educational game.
Create different sections for the text as needed. e.g. how to earn points, homework, taking over countries, peace, writing questions, etc. When rules become complex, offer a prompt that will produce a diagram when used by a system such as Dall-e or Canva's AI image generator (or other publishing software).
Use a fun and friendly voice that will motivate students to prepare for and play this game like it's the coolest thing they've ever seen! And, remind people reading this that we are quite possibly living in the Age of Imagination that, because of AI, almost anything is possible and, because of this, if there is something that doesn’t seem right, all they have to do is, simply, make changes to the prompt and run that.
If something is specifically for the teacher, make sure the headline indicates that this part is for the teacher. Does this make sense?
Here is the text for the game that I mentioned above.
