This was an effective technique for 2 reasons:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ensure all team members\u2019 thoughts are acknowledged.<\/span><\/li><li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">verify if all team members have a similar vision for the project. <\/span><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first question, \u201cWhy is it important to transform players?\u201d hit us right in the head! Our answers did not match.

We believed that Games For Change audience already understand (or think they understand) the values of art for civic engagement; However, there is still a gap between awareness and action. The acts can be taken in various forms depending on who the person is, so long as they support the art communities.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" data-src=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tumblr_inline_olozspuIxK1tnlttq_1280.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1063 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tumblr_inline_olozspuIxK1tnlttq_1280.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tumblr_inline_olozspuIxK1tnlttq_1280-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tumblr_inline_olozspuIxK1tnlttq_1280-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tumblr_inline_olozspuIxK1tnlttq_1280-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1280px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1280\/720;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tumblr_inline_olozspuIxK1tnlttq_1280.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1063\" srcset=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tumblr_inline_olozspuIxK1tnlttq_1280.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tumblr_inline_olozspuIxK1tnlttq_1280-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tumblr_inline_olozspuIxK1tnlttq_1280-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/tumblr_inline_olozspuIxK1tnlttq_1280-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/IMG_4147-e1556373762796-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1792 lazyload\" width=\"384\" height=\"512\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/IMG_4147-e1556373762796-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/IMG_4147-e1556373762796-225x300.jpg 225w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 384px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 384\/512;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/IMG_4147-e1556373762796-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1792\" width=\"384\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/IMG_4147-e1556373762796-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/projects-old.etc.cmu.edu\/paradigm\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/IMG_4147-e1556373762796-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 384px) 100vw, 384px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We used the technique with our entire team and finally agreed on many parts of the framework.
