Activity Overview
Individuals will become aware of differing perspectives and work to combine viewpoints to complete a task.

Activity Instructions
Participants work to exactly reproduce a mosaic pattern with tiles provided. Each team, in turn, views an encrypted image at the front of the room, revealed to them for a short time by the facilitator. Team members must wear Viewpoint eyewear to view/decode the image. Team members then work to construct a mosaic, using all the red and blue tiles provided, that precisely replicates the colored image they just observed. Every few minutes, a different member of each team will be allowed to come to the front of the room and view the image again. The teams face a significant challenge in constructing the mosaic as one of the rules suggests they must use all of their mosaic tiles to correctly create the required pattern. A second constraint is they cannot talk to each other until the discussion phase of the activity.

Suggested Use
This is a perfect activity to highlight diversity and the importance of using collaboration and teamwork to successfully complete a task.
