Comments on: The Running Game http://reasonandwonder.com Better through reflection Mon, 13 Sep 2021 11:29:14 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.8.24 By: Michael Fenton http://reasonandwonder.com/the-running-game/#comment-172 Sat, 10 Aug 2013 23:05:36 +0000 http://reasonandwonder.wordpress.com/?page_id=505#comment-172 You’re the second person to suggest time/distance action for different forms of travel. I think it’s worth exploring, though I’m not sure how to collect and display the data. (I feel like about a week ago I finally hit a rhythm for gathering and displaying the Nike+ info so it’s clean, task is clear, etc.) If you have any ideas for how to gather and display info for the other forms of movement you described, don’t hesitate to share.

I’m toying with the idea of turning The Running Game (where 30 to 40 challenges will suffice, otherwise I think it will get stale) into something tentatively titled Proportions 180 or Proportional Reasoning 180. I would find four or five other themes (or maybe many more) where proportional reasoning would play a central role in solving the challenges. Plus with a name in the style of Something 180, my single-serving MTBoS inspiration (plagiarism source?) would be unmistakably clear. 🙂

I really hope you have a chance to try these out with your students. I’m excited to hear feedback from more than just my own classroom.

One last thing… At the end of this month my wife and I are running a half marathon. There will be a special edition long(er)-form challenge for The Running Game.

Thanks for stopping by to comment!

These are sweet concise challenges we all seem to encounter. I know you’ve called it the Running Game, but I’d be curious to see some with driving, flying, walking, riding a bike, etc.
I’m excited to see more!
