Library Passport Missions - Geography, Anthropology, Recreation | St. Cloud Technical and Community College

Week Six

G: Geography, Anthropology, Recreation - Places, Cultures, and Adventures

Class G explores places, cultures, travel, recreation, and how people interact with the world around them.

Main Mission: Around the Map

Choose any place on Earth, maybe somewhere you have never been or a place you know absolutely nothing about and want to explore.

Find:

A map
Population information
A cultural tradition
A recreation or tourist activity

Create a one-page travel profile.

Side Quest

Locate the farthest place from your campus that appears in the library collection.

Badge:

🏆 Geo Adventurer

You already know about bad information.

You see this every day, all over social media, in the things you hear people say, and other things you read.

Knowing the difference between truth and foolishness is a vital skill that every person needs to be using every day. And the library is here to help you to build your skills and your confidence in finding and using the best information!

We want you to get comfortable looking at different kinds of information, and sharing what you have discovered. We want to encourage your independent exploration of both physical and digital library resources. Each week in the library this semester, we will host a mission for you to explore, with an optional side quest. You will learn about materials and ideas in topics across the Library of Congress classification system - the way that librarians sort out all the information in the universe of all possible knowledge. (You didn’t think we just randomly threw things onto a shelf, did you?) Grab a Library Passport.

Each week we have a new Main Mission you can do, to explore an area of information. There is an optional Side Quest each week, to keep exploring the topics. When you are done for the week, bring your results to Mary Jordan (Librarian) or Elizabeth Norgren (Library Technician), in person or email it to us. If it all looks correct, we’ll give your Passport a stamp, and issue your badge. Side quests get a separate stamp.
