The 3 Day Intensive Managing 3D Me program is
aptly named. During the three days the
participants learn to recognize their strengths,
improve their organization and study skills,
learn keyboarding and spelling strategies for
Visual Spatial Learners, role play dealing with
specific situations and managing emotions and
intensities. They find expression through clay
modeling, sketching, photography, role playing
and puppetry. They enjoy challenges of strategy
games, zome construction and puzzles. They have
the opportunity to stay in contact with each
other and with Starjump via an MC2 Forum and
email. The program is evaluated each day and
modified if necessary to tailor the course to the
specific needs of the participants.
