Destination ImagiNation Eastern Region Tournament
Salisbury Middle School
All are invited to attend the 2011 Eastern Region Destination Imagination Tournament on Saturday, March 19, at Salisbury Middle School from 8 a.m.-3 p.m. The Awards Ceremony will begin at 3 p.m. in the Gymnasium. Admission is free.
You will see many clever solutions to this year’s challenges. Come show your support for our 37 Wicomico County elementary, middle and high school DI teams. Teams compete at the Regional Tournament to earn the right to advance to the Maryland State Tournament on April 2 at UMBC. Qualifying teams can then earn the right to advance to represent the state of Maryland at Global Finals in May at the University of Tennessee.
Destination ImagiNation ( DI ) is a student centered, technology friendly, international organization for kindergarten through college students. It teaches life skills and expands imaginations through team-based creative problem solving. Destination ImagiNation emphasizes creativity, teamwork and problem solving.
The DI Program has two components revolving around a central theme each year. The first component is Instant Challenge ( IC ). These challenges spark and quickly capture the team members’ wild imaginations as they attempt to solve a challenge on the spot. Students practice “Improv” techniques using materials and verbal responses which will enable them to handle spontaneous problem solving. Students learn creativity skills, divergent and convergent thinking skills, risk taking, time awareness, cooperation, and how to have fun with their team members along the way.
The second component is the Central Challenge ( CC ). Teams use art, technology, performance, and real world relevance as they tackle one of five different challenges each year. The team solution takes weeks and months to complete. Each challenge contains scoring elements that will be carefully judged by trained appraisers.
