SUMMARY
This technical report is all about the ZETEO Quest that the STI College Ortigas-Cainta has given to those students who wants to experience this and can get a lot of learnings. This reports goals and objectives wants to know if the Senior High School students had a lot of learning that they learned and their feedback to the activity they do.
We also want to know if they had found out some of their skills that they never know that they have it. We want to find out how they get through to this challenges they face while enjoying the ZETEO Quest. We gathered data by asking some students on what is there feedback, hearing their opinion on the activities and their ways on how did they have a great teamwork.
What we have found out in the recommendation part is that a lot of students do really want a higher level on the Zeteo Bus Segment, we do also expect that we will be enjoying ourselves there. Another thing is in the registration form, some students cannot come to the activity because they cannot find their name in the list. Before starting the event make sure that the list is all clearly and good
They say in the Zeteo app got a little problem. There is some misunderstanding that come up, some questions are not connected to what the topic is all about. They should fix the app first so that the game is processing properly because some groups are stuck in some levels because it is already lock, and add more exciting games too. In short, they should be prepared before doing this event.
INTRODUCTION
Our country has a lot of groups that expert on using technology. The Zeteo Quest is one of the groups that help students to be prepared in calamity by using mind-games and realistic activity. The Zeteo Quest is also known as the expert on making educational games and educational events for private and public school. Also the Zeteo Quest is expert on making 3D effects, also on making games like VR or Virtual Reality games.
The purpose of this report is to give idea what should the student can gather on Zeteo Quest, to know if they do really help the students to engage their hidden skills when it comes to challenges and puzzles, also if those students really enjoy their day. This report gives some idea in Zeteo Quest, what are the happenings, how did it happen and also to convince some student to be part of Zeteo Quest.
We the make this report for us to have knowledge on Zeteo quest and to became prepared if ever there are some natural disaster like the Zeteo Team teaches us.
DISCUSSION
- What is Zeteo Quest?
Zeteo Quest is a reality game that expose and gives the students a realistic experience while having fun and learning from the activities. It is also a mind-game that needs a team work and to test your analytical thinking.
The following organizers of the Zeteo quest are the officials of the Zeteo and also the professors of STI College Ortigas-Cainta. They lead the program by giving us an initial idea what is the main goal of Zeteo Quest.
The main goal of Zeteo Quest is to give us the awareness of what are the possibility happens when the earthquakes, flashfloods, landslides and etc. occurs. They also give us tips on what we’re going to do if the calamity happened, and also to use our minds to think deeply and to have a great teamwork that can surpass their challenges.
2. Segments and Activities
In the first segment that they have is the Survival game, there are some objects that they flash on the projector where the groups will have a permission to pick an object that can let them survive in a given situation or after a natural disaster for a longer time. This Survival game will help us to choose wisely too on what are the objects that we should have to be able to survive in a natural disaster that can come without a warning in our country.
In the second activity called the Zeteo Storyline where the zeteo staffs will tell us a story about zeteo, they choose some students that can role play the characters in the story, the students also have a role in this activity, not only to listen and watch but also to understand what is the story about. The goals of this is to let us realize that we should decide wisely because those decisions can make our lives change.
The third one is the Zeteo Go App where you will use their app and will use your physical strength because this segment needed a lot of time and patience. In this game there is a different level where you will get a questions and you will need to scan a picture for you to get the puzzle and solve it to reach the another level, in this segment it helps us to really think deeper and use not only our critical thinking but also the communication and understanding, of course you need to have a teamwork here for your group to finish the level, it helps us to showcase our hidden skills like solving puzzles, understanding codes and many more that can encourage you to take those challenges.
3. Student Skills Acquisition
In order to prepare students to have more knowledge in science the program will help student to prepare in any environmental hazard. two days ZETEO programs should provide experiences that go beyond chemistry knowledge alone to develop other critical skills necessary for effective and productive professionals. Strategies for helping students acquire skill sets needed for future calamities such as earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes and etc.
It helps the student’s awareness so that we do not harm and hurt in any calamities. The curriculum should include the skills and knowledge of greatest importance to the program’s partners. Hands-on experience should be emphasized and employability skills, such as problem solving, survival and etc. So we can be saved and our families.
4. Student Engagement and Participation
The students registered in these activity by agreeing to the letter that the STI College Ortigas-Cainta give them, of course with the parents’ approval too. From what I heard there are Seven Hundred (700) students who do join this activity.
This event started by having a different batch and meeting them at the field of school, they are so organized because the teachers and other staffs of ZETEO knows what to do and even in their photo booth they have a number of people per picture.
The students did really participate and do it seriously, rain or shine they still continue to do the quest. This activity ended by going to the last segment called Hello Kuya where you will be asked what are your thoughts on the activity, does it help you and what are your realization on doing the quest.
5. Student Feedback and Assessment
Zeteo helps the student to became active in extracurricular activities like zeteo. The zeteo helps the students because it helps to become aware of the disasters that might come in our country.
Students have the ability to find the answers in given situation that seen in the phone. there are programs that need to find the answer to the walls on the ground of STI Collage Ortigas-Cainta. their survival program has helped student to choice things or materials that important that can carry or use when disasters arise. but it does not make it easier for the question and answer because not all the student might answer it so that they have been able to solve the problem. It should not be so questionable because not all students are able to answer the problem.
CONCLUSIONS
As we gather data from different students and also based on our experience in joining the Zeteo Quest, we do really enjoy the fun games and activities we have its just that a lot of the students wants more activities and challenges that can make them more motivated on doing such things.
Like on the Zeteo Bus, some students expected something unique from it. In overall, I expect that next time the Zeteo Team would have some unique and exciting activities that will surely bring out the skills and talents of the students, they do teach us and help us to do a great teamwork for us to get pass through any challenges as a team and do practice ones communicating skills because you do really need it a lot. This Zeteo Quest Experience will leave a good memory in each one of the students.
RECOMMENDATIONS
What we recommend is to add more effects in a VR bus like shaking when there are earthquakes but it is only for the senior high school not to the elementary students nor pre-school also.
The following event is okay but there are some issues from the Zeteo app that many students didn’t know on easy or medium or hard they start. There are some also questions that is very hard that to answer even our professors also can’t answer. Also We recommend next time they make sure the app is processing properly and give directions to make it clearly.
In the registration of the students are slightly terrible because some of the students who passed the form are not in the list. We may recommend that the listing of names next time make sure that it is 100% Clear and all who pass their forms are indicated.
The skills and the focused of the segments are good. They explain and give experience to us while having fun and learning. We may recommend that they add more games like giving a scenario and what would they do if they’re in the following event while wearing a Virtual reality.
