In my Website Incubator course, I begin the semester by having the students play The Pitch Game.

The game, an adaptation of The Big Idea by Cheapass Games, helps students think about the goal, content, and audience for the websites they hope to create in the class.

It’s one of my favorite days of the semester, especially since it gives students a chance to get to know one another without my interference as they settle into the semester.
