Playing to learn Part 2

I really like the game Zeitgiest so im going to make an action adventure game. I am trying to find a way to make my game a learning game.

Present your hidden object game

Add Hidden objects

    Adding my hidden objects was kind of easy because you need to add code to each one of them and put em in one layer.

Drawing Backgroung

     Drawing my back ground was pretty hard because I have to put every single thing in one layer. Also because I get confused on putting them together so they make one scene.

Make Paper Prototype

     I already finishe my paper prototype and I drew my backgroung and I uploaded it. I also drew my hidden objects.

Plan Game Scene

       My game will have a boat on the background and you have to find all the hidden objects, for example a watch, a fork, and a plate.
The objects will blend in with its background and it will be kind of hard.

Choose your Learning Topic

I like this topic because it's interesting to know about tragedies and what caused them.My game will be a hiddes object game.Hundreds of lives were lost in the "Titanic".Hundreds of artifacts remain in the Titanic.

Playing To Learn Part 1

 By playing these games I learned that throwing trash causes pollution and many animals die. I also learnde about animal how many legs the have and, parts of their body.
These game sgive me some ideas about clicking in stuff to collect them for my minigame.

Ist Month Of School

I think that this first month hasn't been so good because, I feel that the time we have during passing period is not that much. Also because, I have low grades in some of my classes that I most dislike. I like that I saw some of my friends at school. I also think that this school is too strict about shoes ,like for example we need to bring black or white shoes with black or white shoe laces. So I don't think it's been good so far.

Globe Awards

1. What did you think about the article?
I think this article is kind of interesting, because it tells you these great things that other people can't do that some kids do.
2. How did it make you feel to read about your school and Globaloria, a program that you participate in.
It made me feel that us are very smart because people would be impressed.
3. If your game was featured in the article, how did it make you feel? Proud, happy? 
If my game was to be in the article I would feel very proud of me and my teamates.
4. If your game was not featured in the article, what would you like for the author to have said about your game? 
I would like the aouthor to say: "I saw some really other great games!"
5. Which game do you think the author should have mentioned in his article and why? 
Ours, because it teaches about World War II and other stuff.

Forks Over Knives

What do you think this documentary will be about?

What do you think the title implies or indicates about the film?

I think this film is about bad junk food, because the title makes me think about food which is  basically the way you make and eat food.

I think this film is awesome!! I didn't know that all of that junk that we eat could kill us. I'm going to stop eating all that bad food. I'm only going to eat it moderately. I don't want to die so fast. People need to know all this stuff. We need to eat more healthier. Other people just don't care. 

Hundreds of people die each year, just because of eating junk food.

Scientists have found that all that fat gets into our vanes and causes heart attacks.They also found that animal food products are bad.

Animal protein is important for the human health.

Scientists found that a small percent are caused by cells.

Respect

What does this look like?
In the classroom-You don't say anything offensive to anybody.
In the computer lab-Don't send bad messages to other people.
In the hallways-Keep your hands to yourself.


During lunch you need to close your mouth when your eating.

Claudio did the intro, team intro and the audience

Leo did the Originality Factor smart factor and  style factor 

Jonathan did the game play learning goal and fun factor

Notes 2-23-12

 I did the intro screen and Claudio did the Game play and Jonathan did the rest. We had hard times trying to make the buttons work. 

Nike

 I think its pretty bad of how that company treats badly people.They shouldn't be like that.People can die from all those chemicals they breath.I think sweatshops are dangerous for people, especially for kids. The workers had to sign a contract in a language they don't know that said that if they want to leave they needed to pay for those 3 years. So they get paid so little that makes it impossible to pay those 3 years so now they're trapped. Viet workers in Malaysia are sent back if they strike.

How could you take this real-life event and turn this into a game?

Science.What skill or topic would your game teach?
It would teach about meteors.What would the player have to do in the game?
