What Happens
during the Mission? - A Snapshot
During the e-Mission there are four student teams with
2 to 8 students on a team: Communications Team (2),
Radiation Team (4-8), Life Support (4- 8), and Crisis
Management Team (5).
The number of students in your
class will determine the number of teams and student
assignments.
Each team should have a separate table or group of
desks to work at. The Communications Team should be
located towards the front of the room. The Crisis
Management Team should be located in the back or
center of the room.
It is important to arrange the team areas in the room
so that team messengers can walk to and from the other
teams as needed, without interfering with the ongoing
work and without tripping on computer or printer cables.
In addition, the team areas should be positioned to
allow everyone to observe the large projection screen
in front of the class.
Every five to six minutes the Radiation Team and Life
Support Teams receive data via computer. After a team
receives its data, team members make the appropriate
calculations, complete the charts and graphs, assess
the situation, and complete Report Forms. The team
messengers will take a copy of the Report Form to the
Crisis Management and the Communications Team. The
Crisis Management Team will analyze the situation based
upon the reports it receives and then its messenger will
carry a report to the Communications Team for transmission
to Mission Control.
