Bonus: To end the day on a high note, your final mission is to draw a constellation... but not just any constellation! The constellation of resilience! Each of the stars that make up this constellation is one of the different concepts that for you are part of—or closely related to—resilience. You can of course use the concepts you have explored in this PhiloQuest, but you can also find others. How are you going to draw the star of resistance? What about the star of error? What will the entire constellation represent? If it’s possible, you can even hang or glue your constellation above your bed to fall asleep under a starry... and resilient sky! |
| Tricks for tots: Instead of drawing a whole constellation, you can draw a single star instead: your "lucky star"—the one that makes you resilient. What colours will you use to draw it? What shape will it have? If you'd like, you can even hang or glue it above your bed to fall asleep under the watchful eye of your lucky star! |
| Tips for teens: How has your understanding of resilience evolved over the course of this dazzling philosophical quest? Can you identify the specific experiences that have changed your view of resilience? Has struggling with certain questions helped you better understand resilience? You can use your answers to the questions above to reflect on your experience. |
