So last week, Ronny Poh (NYC) Nur Ariffin Bin Rohezan (NYC) Enling Shane (NYC) and I did a framing on harry potter.
Harry potter *inserts voldermort sound*

They will be choosing their house based on games eg. Helium stick, keypunch. Instructors will be addressed as Professors.
Participant will be earning points to win the wizard cup. The wizard cup winner will win an award eg. Apple crumble.

What work?
- Participants are able to buy into the idea of the framing. As the “wizard cup” is a competition pax are also always looking for chance to earn points such as performing task that display team spirit.
- Using the point system engages the participant constantly such as asking questions that will earn them points after every briefing will make them listen much more attentively.
- Using reference from the book will also entice pax to buy into the idea of harry potter framing.
What did not work?
- For land expedition, the mobile decided to do up brochures on different places and at the end of the day they would need to do a show and tell which will be graded by the instructor. We realised that even though some of the brochure have a lot of knowledge of the location inside but it wasn’t enough to entice the others. What could be done better is to ask them to create a skit on the places they have went to. This allow a better interaction between watches and also create a much more relaxed environment.
