Globaaloria so far

So far this year in Globaloria has good. I know one good thing about Globaloria is taht it helps us with our computer skills. It also gives us a headstart for when we go to colledge and everyone has to take a class like this. The best thing about Globaloria get extra credit for it. The worst thing about globaloria is the super hard work.

Particpation Guidelines

Answer these questions on your blog:

1. What does it mean to have a 'single story' about a place or community? There is a stereo type about some where
2. Describe a single story you have heard told about your community. What is missing from that story? That we are a bunch of backwoods hillbillies. We are really normal people. How could people learn more about that community? Come and listen to us tell how we really are. 
3. Describe a single story you have heard about another community. How did you learn that story? How could you find out more about that community? L.A has alot of thuges and gangs, From tv I could search it or ask some one that lived there what it was really like.
4. How could a game let players experience many stories about a place or community? By playing it would help them understand

Imagining your game

1. Reflect on Your Game Idea
Copy and answer ALL of these questions about your Game Idea in a blog post:

• WHO are you designing your game for? (Include the player's age, abilities, and prior knowledge of your topic.) 8th grade history

• WHAT will your game teach the player about your topic? (Be specific!) The Titanic 1912

• WHERE does your game happen?
  • Describe the world you will design for your game. Atlantic Ocean
  • How will this setting add to the learning experience? It would make it feel more realistic and also more fun for the player.

• HOW does your game world teach the player about your topic?
  • What happens in the world that helps the player learn? It tells you facts about the Titanic and helps you better understand 
  • How does the player use what they learned to make something happen in the game? It helps them advance through rounds because you have to know certain things in able to jump around and do stuff.

• WHY is a game a better way of understanding your topic than a quiz? In a quiz game it is harder to learn because it is boring but, If it is not a quiz game then you will have fun and not have to be bored

Playing to learn

I think the most would be science. I think that science is very easy. It would be awesome to make a game aboutthis. But we have social studies this year. It should be okay though because social studies is easy too. I think the games this year will be fun and interesting. I am excited to see what the other games will be like. This my team and I are making and a game about the Titanic. It will be awesome. Bye.
