I wanted to create a game that I could use at work. We needed to add more content to our model rocketry workshop, so that is why I chose to focus my game on learning Newton’s Laws of Motion. This game gives you the definition and you have to choose the correct corresponding law.
The process I used to create this game was trial and error. I would come up with an idea then try to program it. I had to do this several times and examine other projects that were similar to mine so that I could get other ideas of how to ask the questions and provide feedback for each of the answers. Creating this game was challenging for me, but I learned patience and persistence. I also learned that there are several ways to program a basic concept.
I really liked that I was the science teacher in this game. It shows the current and future generations that anyone can be a “scientist,” even a female scientist! If I could change anything in my game, I would want to add more questions. I want to continue creating games that I can use in my workshops and in my future classroom.
Good points. I loved that you put yourself into the game but did not think of the message that girls as well as boys can be scientists.
ReplyDeleteI also really likes that your portrayed a female (you) as the science teacher in the game! I also enjoyed playing your game! It does take patience and persistence!
