Our schedule for today was really busy in which we had fun and we were challenged by participating in a great competition. The first thing that we did was attend a lecture given by a representative from Dundee municipality; she talked about Dundee’s past, present and future. In addition, she explained for about one hour the different aspects of life in Dundee such as: business, education and culture. If you need more information about Dundee " one city, many discoveries” you can visit the following website: www.dundee.com
After this interesting lecture, we had a short break before the challenging competition was revealed!
The challenge was in a form of a competition between 6 groups of students in which each group had to talk about 4 places that are related to specific categories. Our group got the business and financial category to prepare a short presentation that includes facts about the places and pictures of the group in these places. The challenge was announced at 12 pm and we were asked to be ready at 4 pm. The group started working hard by searching first about business and financial cities in Dundee. After we ate lunch very quickly to save our time, we requested a taxi to go to the places that we picked. We wanted to take photos of the group in these places and get more information about them at the same time. Actually, we had a great time doing that task. We felt as if we were in a race and we had to win, it reminded us of the TV show “The Amazing Race”. Therefore, we did our best to get the pictures in a short time in which we were the first who came back to the college after we had done the mission perfectly. We used the time wisely to prepare our final presentation and we tried to make it fun by preparing some games for the audience.
It was really a great opportunity to examine our skills as a group and individuals. We learned a lot from this experience and from the other group's experiences too. Beside all that, we had fun and we really enjoyed the challenge.
