I would like you to think about your game and answer the following question:  Can your game be both a Civics and Stem Game?
Our game is mainly focused on technology. we are not using any form of civics.


 In order for you to make an informed decision and answer the above question, I have added links to the definition of Civis (Civics Definition) and Stem (Stem Definition). In addition, please list five game ideas that could be both Civics and Stem Games.
1. Lawcraft
2. Argument wars
3. Ministry of War
4. Supreme Decision.
5. World of Warcraft

Explore your Knowledge Community and find a research link you find helpful from another student's blog. Write a post explaining why this is a useful resource, link back to the blog of the student who originally posted it, and add the link to your blogroll. If you can't find anything of use from your peers' blogrolls, do some research and suggest a new resource that you found on your own. 


I couldn't find anything. I am sad.

I have learned just recently that games start from scratch and build up to over a year! Our game is a simple game but it has taken a while even though it's easy. I learned this from the company Steam

I know this is a late blog sorry!

ALERT! Humans versus Zombies!

 DANGER! DANGER! A new game has sprouted across all college campuses called Humans versus Zombies! I have the link here http://pwnscone.com/HVZ.htmlthat will send you a copy of the game. basic game controls are: W,A,S,D are used to move. Left click is used to shoot. And space is for sprint. Send me a comment on how far you played and what your high score was. This game was not made by me nor does it have any gore. You all play safe and destroy the zombies.

This was approved by THE GAME!

Week... some number

Alright seriously is this a joke? I think the manager said, "Let's reduce the DVDs by one cent."

Internet Security

Should you respond or talk to people you do not know, on line, outside the Globaloria Community?

No, since you do not know who you are talking to or what they do. That person might be able to hack and mess up everything you did.

Can you be sure the person you are talking to has actually represented themselves accurately?

No, they can lie about anything

Why do we ask you to hide  your personal information?

That way no one is able to take your information

Why must you never give your Social Security Number or bank account number to anyone online?

Anyone can use your social security number for anything if they get a hold of your Social Security Number.

Kung Fu!

       Those cats were fast as lighting! Although why were they fighting? They were fighting over a burrito.

WHO are you designing your game for? (Include the player's age, abilities, and prior knowledge of your topic.)
We are designing this game for kids of age 5-16, they should be able to use the arrow keys for the game's abilities, basically all about using technology.

WHAT will your game teach the player about your topic? (Be specific!)

Our game will teach the player the physics of gravity and the use of technology.

WHERE does your game happen?


An industrial park that has a lot of levers and other tech

Describe the world you will design for your game.

The game will be center around using levers like a building making machines

How will this setting add to the learning experience?


Technology is mostly used around buildings who build other machines

HOW does your game world teach the player about your topic?

This is where you find the technology mostly being used at.


What happens in the world that helps the player learn?

Noises and blocks moving around.

How does the player use what they learned to make something happen in the game?

Technology just basically easing our lives and the person will probably think of ideas to make our lives even easier to deal with.

WHY is a game a better way of understanding your topic than a quiz?

It is a hands on opportunity to use physics and levers to achieve a goal.

How gravity works and mechanics.

I play games..... A LOT!

I do love playing games a lot. My favorite games are Left 4 Dead 2 and  Halo: REACH. my game perspective is mostly RPG with all kinds of explosions. This does give me a change of perspective because people who make the games can take up to a whole year just to finish one game.

LOOK AT THIS!

HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN?

Technology game I found

I found this game called BridgeCraft. you have to build a bridge by using three different kinds of support with the theory of gravity and tension. http://www.physicsgames.net/game/BridgeCraft.html

Well multimedia is finally on its way class is getting more fun and harder at the same time. But, hopefully at the end i will love this class.

What I expect to learn

I expect to learn everything I can that this class has to offer. I want to learn how to make games that are educational. I want to be able to use this blog account with ease with no difficulty at all.
