For this particular Quickfire, we asked students to come up with an idea for a club, activity, or program that they would like to have available after school. This Quickfire did not guarantee they each of these ideas would become a reality, but it would give teachers and administrators the opportunity to gain empathy for what the life of a student is like after school and things students would to be a part of that are not currently available. We started off by asking students to have a bit of quiet reflection on what they currently do when they leave school. We then asked them to think about their personal interests and how this might translate into something that happen after school.
