This informal event will focus on teamwork and how we can play games to develop our communication skills.

We have been watching a BBC programme called the Family Brain Games where they take a family and give them tests of logic, visual puzzles and mathematical or language games. The studies show that the groups must all work together to be a strong team and that they have to listen to every member before you can solve the puzzle.

An Imperial academic has helped to design difficult tasks on this new television show. They have created a set of challenges to measure different aspects of individual intelligence. The games also explore group intelligence of the groups, and how they plan, problem-solve and communicate towards a common goal.

We are going to play some of these games! We have questions on logic, on maths and even some on your visual and spatial awareness. You will be racing against other teams, and we will crown the winners based on time but also how you work as a group.
