RIPPLE EFFECT HOMEWORK 1

Making Connections The class started with a presentation about CAT and how it can be helpful to the class. It was followed up with a group created mind map about “What college I am going to ****” (as a follow up of their previous session- define your problem). Then, the group moved to a new room with a more traditional space to work on the ripple effect activity. As a group, the students came up with a topic they would like to tackle and developed a diagram of project impacts in different levels.
Decide what kind of impact you want your group to have—from improving the lives of individuals in your community to changing your country or the world. CLARIFY: Ripple Effect

Have each team write around the first circle the effect they’d like to have on close friends or family. Draw a larger circle around
these names and label it ‘individuals’ . The group decide about the impacts they would like to have on their close friends, families, community or even the world. 3
Write the effects the team would like to have on their community around the individuals circle. Draw a larger circle around these newly added affects and label it ‘community.’ Continue the exercise for the effects the team wants to have on their country, nation, and world.

where to next? Try another Clarify activity like ‘Define Your Problem’ to better understand the problem you want to solve.
Define Your Problem
Ask everybody to post their Ripple Effects on the wall and talk about their similarities and differences. Choose a circle to focus on and the effects you’d like to see. Write these on a clean sheet of paper with when you’d like to see this happen. Put this sheet on the wall so the team can use it later.

Mind map activity for “Going to College”
Divide your group into teams of three people. Hand each team a piece of paper and ask them to write a question they’re trying to work through at the top. Then draw a circle in the center of the page that contains the names of the group members.
