Work Simulation Competition Voting

Objective

Students will demonstrate their communication and writing skills to review submitted Work Simulation Project in Digitability’s Annual Work Simulation Competition. After reviewing this year's entries, students will use their written communication skills to share what they like about their favorite project. Students will then be encouraged to vote for their favorite project to help them win prizes that will benefit their classrooms.

Directions for this Extension Activity:

In this activity, students will use analytical thinking skills to review Work Simulation projects. As students review entries for this year’s competition, they will identify components of a successful Work Simulation project and write about one project to persuade others to vote for their favorite project. Classes will then be invited to vote online for their favorite projects.
