Escape from Raptor Island is the title of the 2017-2018 Interschool Academic Survival Challenge (IASC) of KPluz.  This is the first-ever IASC launched by us.

 

IASC was conceived by KPluz to improve student engagement in our online academic excellence program.

 

 

A time-space distortion spike mysteriously sent all KPluzzers to the XiGEGA universe. Here, they found themselves aboard the spacecraft Intrepid V, not as students, but as part of an elite group of scientists, engineers, and military experts going to sector X2G of Planet Tyranim to conduct some research. 

 

They were busy preparing for their landing on Tyranim when an extremely powerful electromagnetic pulse disrupted the navigation and flight control system of the ship. 

 

It didn't take long for them to realize that their ship was hurtling down towards what seemed a densely forested island.  The crash landing was nerve-wracking but everybody survived and was safe inside the ship.  Or so they thought.

 

Little did they know that on Raptor Island, noone was ever truly safe.

 

 

THE MISSION

 

The KPluzzers of each school must cooperate with each other so that everybody will escape from this mysterious and extremely dangerous island.  Their mission, therefore, is nothing less than 100% survival

 

 

THE SURVIVAL TASKS

 

Each school will be divided into five groups, each of which will be assigned a survival task. A school must complete all tasks for any of its students to survive and escape Raptor Island.

 

Group # 1: GATHER FOOD

 

The task of this group is to gather enough food for everybody. To accomplish this, every member of this task group must achieve a total of no less than two (2) blue bars.  If any member of this task group achieves less than 2 blue bars by the deadline, there won't be enough food and nobody will survive.

 

Group # 2: BUILD SHELTERS

 

The task of this group is to build enough temporary shelters that will allow everybody to escape. To accomplish this, every member of this task group must achieve a total of no less than two (2) blue bars.  If any member of this task group achieves less than 2 blue bars by the deadline, there won't be enough shelters during the escape and nobody will survive.

 

Group # 3: FIND VEHICLES

 

Recon drones sent to inspect the island confirmed the presence of functioning vehicles in various places. The task of this group is to find all of these vehicles  and make them useable for transport. To accomplish this, every member of this task group must achieve a total of no less than two (2) blue bars.  If any member of this task group achieves less than 2 blue bars by the deadline, there won't be enough vehicles for the escape and nobody will survive.

 

Group # 4: COLLECT SURVIVAL ACCESSORIES

 

The recon drones also confirmed the presence of various survival accessories on the island.  The task of this group is to collect all of these survival accessories  for everybody's use. To accomplish this, every member of this task group must achieve a total of no less than two (2) blue bars.  If any member of this task group achieves less than 2 blue bars by  the deadline, there won't be enough survival accessories to protect everybody from harm during the escape and nobody will survive.

 

Group # 5: DEVISE AN ESCAPE PLAN

 

The task of this group is to utilize all the resources accumulated by the first four task groups for a fool-proof escape plan. To accomplish this, every member of this task group must achieve a total of no less than two (2) blue bars.  If any member of this task group achieves less than 2 blue bars by  the deadline, there won't be a viable escape plan and nobody will survive.

 

 

HOW TO ESCAPE FROM RAPTOR ISLAND

 

A KPluzzer simply needs to accumulate a total of 25 blue bars or more in order to survive and escape from Raptor Island, provided that all the five (5) tasks above are completed by his or her school. Users who are using MathPluz only are required to have at least 15 blue bars in order to survive.

 

 

HOW TO WIN

 

This is a contest among schools. The school that has the highest survival rate by  the deadline will be declared as the winner of this contest.  The survival rate of each school will simply be computed as the number of survivors divided by the total number of students.  Remember, if a school has at least one student with less than 2 blue bars, it automatically gets a survival rate of 0%.
