Malang, July 21, 2024 – On Sunday (21/7/2024), Let’s Play Indonesia performed the “Play Session with 3G Cooperative” activity in Malang. The event was attended by 25 participants that came from Glintung Go Green Cooperative (3G). In purpose to introduce the student cooperatives concept through game-based learning, this activity successfully created an interactive and educational atmosphere.
The purpose of this event was to teach participants about the student cooperatives concept through educational and interactive games. Besides, this session also aimed to enhance participants’ understanding on the cooperation dynamic and competition in the business world through the use of board games.
Series of Activities
The event started at 10 a.m. WIB with an ice-breaking activity that is designed to create a relaxed atmosphere and prepare the participants before the main game session. The ice-breaking activity successfully created a fun and relaxed atmosphere, making it easier for participants to interact and get to know each other.
After the ice-breaking, Arif Bawono, founder of Let’s Play Indonesia, gave a briefing on the type and details of the game to be played. He explained in detail about the board game that will be played, namely Business Craft, as well as the objectives and benefits of this session.
The game session was divided into three tables, with each table consisting of five teams. Each team consisted of two to three people and was accompanied by one facilitator. The participants were challenged to collect as much money as possible as the main objective of the game. However, each round of the game introduced dynamics that depicted real-world business challenges, such as differences of opinion among individuals and competition among competitors.
The Business Craft game lasted for two hours, starting with an introduction session, game instruction, the game session, and ended with a reflection session. This reflection session gave opportunity for participants to reflect on their experiences, share their views, and learn from the situations faced during the game. This discussion was guided by facilitators who helped lead the participants’ understanding of the importance of cooperation, strategy, and communication in business.
After the Business Craft session ended, participants enjoyed a break and lunch until 1 p.m. WIB.
The next session was a playtest, Kopsis Story play session, which aimed to introduce the student cooperatives concept to participants. The method used in this session was similar to the previous one: starting with an introduction, game instruction, the game session, and ended with a reflection session. The Kopsis Story session lasted for an hour, where participants were invited to understand how student cooperatives can function and provide benefits in the school environment.
In this opportunity, Let’s Play Indonesia was pleased to be present and collaborate with 3G Cooperative to carry out this activity.
