Dis1: Charity Donation Assignment
You have happened upon a tired genie in a bottle who has one more wish to grant before retiring. This genie is getting grouchy in his old age, however, and limits the wish. He will give you $1,000 to spend, but you only have 2 options in how to spend it. Option 1: You may take that $1,000 to Vegas and gamble it, but if you lose more than the $1,000 YOU will make up the difference, AND you must split any winnings you have at the end of the night with a stranger. Option 2: You MUST donate the $1,000 to any charitable organization of your choosing.
- What games would you play and WHO would you select to split the winnings?
- What organization would you choose and explain why you selected it.
- Share with the class the best cellphone app that you have come across OR your best idea for a cellphone app.
- Name three people (living or dead) that you feel have made some of the biggest contributions to society. Have a little fun with this one! These could include historical figures, entertainment or sports personalities, a current politician …. ANYONE! Then tell us why this person makes your list!
- That is something that the class would be surprised to learn about you?
