Why I Love Bees: A Case Study in Collective Intelligence Gaming
Jane McGonigal, PhD
....
Conclusions
As the leading edge of research, industry, politics, social innovation and cultural production increasingly seek to harness the wisdom of the crowd and the power of the collective, it is urgent that we create engaging, firsthand experiences of collective intelligence for as wide and as general a young audience as possible. Search and analysis games are poised to become our best tool for helping as many and diverse a population as possible develop an interest and gain direct experience participating in our ever-more collective network culture.
In Convergence Culture, Henry Jenkins considers the role that popular culture should play in cultivating collective intelligence. He argues: "Right now, we are learning how to apply these new participatory skills through our relation to commercial entertainment... for two reasons: on the one hand, because the stakes are so low; and on the other, playing with popular culture is a lot more fun than playing with more serious matters."94 Jenkins predicts that as a society, we eventually we evolve our collective intelligence interests in the direction of real-world, rather than fictional, concerns. However, I am suggesting with this case study that for young students learning about CI for the first time, popular culture and online entertainment will remain the most effective spaces for learning how real-world massively collaborative participation works.
In Get There Early, technologist Bob Johansen argues that immersive gaming can prepare players for future changes in network culture. He writes: "Immersion helps get a feeling for what's possible. Immersion helps you try out different ways of acting, so you can develop your own agility." Indeed, as I have documented with this I Love Bees case study, the immersive aspects of search and analysis gaming provide a visceral, first-person, hands-on experience of collaborative cognition, networked cooperation and real-time coordination. Players develop a familiarity with collective intelligence techniques through direct experience. They gain confidence and fluency in emerging technologies and CI strategies by playing with new network platforms and multi-user applications in increasingly complex scenarios. Search and analysis games, with their iterative real-time redesign, are perfectly structured to provide such scaffolding challenges-a key aspect to mastering new modes of problem-solving and cultural participation. As massively-social experiences, search and analysis games are also especially well-suited to encouraging meta-level reflection on the skills and processes that players use to meet new challenges. Being a part of a massively multi-player game community means sharing your thoughts and experiences with your fellow players. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, as learning systems, collective gaming encourages risk-taking learning in a low-risk setting. As Johansen observes: "Learners get to dive in and learn in a first person way, without playing for keeps until they are ready."
I want to conclude this case study with a letter from an I Love Bees player, for I believe the gamers' personal experience speaks best for itself. Several months after I Love Bees ended, I received an email from "Rose", a mother who played the game with her 14-year-old son, a high school student and an avid videogamer. In the letter, she described the game as a powerful tutorial in networked collaboration for them both, one that made them feel excited about participating in collective intelligences in the future. She writes:
It is really important to me that you, and other people, understand the differences that alternate reality gaming has made in our way of thinking. It has powerfully affected our attitudes about what is possible. The game for me has been about gathering a first hand knowledge of how a large community can function, including the role of technology. I know that large scale communities can work and be extraordinarily effective. I am not afraid of the complexities.95

Hassle free, a biscuit made from cannibals, the people who make these die almost every time. as genial as with biscuit as with fowl, cannibals always become unusual gourmands with exacting tastes. you can now assume these tastes without the years of hard work that went into cultivating them simply by ordering these delightful biscuits -- you'll fare better once they're in you, and they're so, so, so, so, just so. Stop sitting by yourself at the chapel, bring a plate of these delightful biscuits made from cannibals. Don't ask where they're from, rest assured -- they're from somewhere else.
The pointy corners of these biscuits allow for greater biscuit area submersion when dunking one in blood. Or tea. Did I say blood?
A word about manufacturing. First he becomes a biscuit, and then they eat him. This is one of the most powerful images in all of colonial discourse we're selling tonight on the Chopping Channel, graduate students the world over have already done the thinking for you on this one, all you need to do is enjoy.
Why waste your time laughing at those young people still shocked & outraged by disclosures of sweatshops, when you could be eating a cannibal biscuit.

i had completely forgotten about all...that! "twins and the twins they love" would be a good name for something.
i was actually coming to this thread to say that, if you're ever in a car with someone for like 5-10 hours, one cool move is to ask other people in the car if they have something they want to listen to, rather than commandeering the playlist for the entire ride. not sure who needs to hear it, but it's come up multiple times in the last year and i was thinking this thread might be a indirect way to change someone's life
