Transcript of African Fish Farm Builder
HOW TO USE THIS GAME
This four way game is designed to help
you design a functional business plan to
build a real fish farm.
Note: Unlike self contained artificial
environments, this game uses live,
dynamic internet information and real
resources. When finished, the
student/farmer will have a legitimate
plan to work from that is 100%
localized to their needs.
FOUR WAYS TO PLAY
1. Explore: The user can skim through the intro video at
the beginning of the tracks to see if they are interested.
2. Solo: An individual can take all the course tracks,
research the game and the Internet’s resources. The end is
a business plan. If you make money, you win, if you spend
more than you make, you lose.
3.Group/Advisor: The best way is for two or more to
research, debate and adopt the resources they need to build
and maintain farms. If you make money, you win, if you
spend more than you make, you lose.
4.Planning & Deployment: Once the plan is done, a file
is generated that has all your research and planning
