ALTEREON
WHEN AN OPPORTUNITY ARRIVES DO WE TAKE THE TIME TO UNDERSTAND ITS IMPLICATIONS?
The Alteron storyline is about evaluating the opportunities in front of us using critical thinking. The field of Time Science creates a seemingly limitless range of ways to achieve success, but what are the implications of using it? Participants engage in missions to explore both the practical and ethical implications of new technology, which aligns with the key learning outcomes of critical thinking and measured risk taking.
The fictional company Altereon is the primary focus of this storyline. The company has created new methods for manipulating time and is making some big claims about them. This creates a scenario where participants need to critically evaluate the benefits and drawbacks of the technology and make tough decisions about how to proceed. Within the back-story are opportunities to exercise creativity and solve problems using time travel as a new tool.
