兒童幻想棒球！參加真實的幻想棒球聯盟

Hi Outschool. This class is a 18 week class where students get to create, manage, and operate their own MLB fantasy Baseball team. We will have a live draft where students select their team, and then meet weekly to discuss the upcoming fantasy week, waiver wire pickups, who to add and drop, should you trade a player, player injuries, and MLB related topics. Because Major League Baseball is always changing, students will learn how to adapt to those changes each week. Even though the class will meet once each week, the students will be able to engage with the other students 7 days a week through the ESPN Fantasy app. We will also use the Group Me app to allow students to keep in touch throughout the week even we do not have classes. 

This class is more like a club because students will get to participate with the same group of friends for an entire MLB season. This class is designed for students to learn to play the game by participating in a real season long fantasy baseball league. This is a private fantasy league that will be only for the Outschool participants that sign up. No outsiders will be able to join. I will be the commissioner of the league to monitor student actions, but the students will only compete against the other students. This class will be all discussion and open participation. Students will learn by doing (Drafting, Trading, Adding and Dropping Players, Building a Winning Team, etc). One of the major components of this class will be problem solving because unexpected variables can impact your team. As the MLB season progresses each week brings new challenges.

This is a great opportunity to make friends in a safe privately controlled environment. Learners will build social skills, problem solving skills, learn to adapt to changes, learn a new game, and most importantly have fun. It is best for the students to have some background knowledge about baseball before taking this class, but it’s not necessary as this class will include learning the game in the process. They are welcome to still join this class and learn as they go.

Fantasy baseball may be a game, but it is a game that can be played and enjoyed into adulthood. Learning the game can also lead to jobs in the communication field. There are jobs in marketing, broadcasting, media, and more. Not only is the game fun, but it could lead to a career doing something you love and enjoy.
