| Project Synopsis: Challenge/Opportunity | Youth Family History Fun! How can we create engaging content for the 11-18 year olds with family history? What are the activities that can be done in a short time, but will engage that age group, to do family history? The Family History Department has been trying different ways to engage the youth in this effort. We have some successful Discovery projects. We need help to come up with new and innovative ways, even packaging the existing content, in a way that is engaging for Seminary or Sunday lessons.
|
| Project Synopsis: Activities/Actions Required | The team will need to survey the existing activities that are already out there. We do have some good resources! But most of them are a little boring to the Youth audience, and we would like some fresh ideas, that will be sticky and help the Youth gain the blessings of helping with family history, without thinking about it as "family history!"
|
| Project Synopsis: Expected Results | What can the youth do on their phones, in 10-15 minutes? Can we take existing content (we do have it) and make it more engaging to the Youth age group? We would love a set of activities, either on a wireframe or on an existing platform, to show how fun it can be to connect with family history.
