Feedback Thoughts


The first article I read was about how to crush self-doubt based on his own experience as a teacher. In the article, he talks about the seven different ways and goes into details about how he overcome self-doubt. 

The second article was about why it's so hard to hear negative feedback and have they aren't to make you feel sad about it. Every time you get a negative feedback, they are honest and will help you improve. 

I think it's important to overcome self-doubt and listen and act on the negative feedback. Listening to others can help you to improve on your work and crushing self-doubt can stop you from doing something you want and love. Thinking you can't and not listening to the feedback can stop you for being creative, which will put your mind into a fixed mindset. You would want to have a growth mindset because you will eventually have no self-doubt and understand why it was important to listen to the feedbacks.

 Looking back, the most productive feedback I can remember was that someone telling me that I shouldn't compare myself to others. Don't work or try to be the same as someone else thats not going to get me anywhere in life. 

The most negative feedback I got was probably someone telling me what if I'm going to be this and that it's not going to last. I don't really remember the reason why or what this conversation was but I did remember that even if that person didn't like or I'm not going to be that, I would still practise and work more.

When you have a big family like mine, every time when there's a family party happening you or your cousins always get compare either by an older cousins or family friend. Even hearing what they say, my cousins and I don't listen to what they saying because at the end of the day everyone is different and it's just their own opinion.

INTRODUCTION

ABOUT ME My name is Nhu Thai. I am really shy but after you know me you will probably regret knowing me. I love meme, I mean who doesn't? I am the oldest and I have 2 annoying brothers and one told me to write that he's a good singer...he thinks he's Beyonce... The best module I took from last year was probably web development because I like doing the coding but I also hate it at the same time. I understood it because I took down notes and ask the lecturer and classmates for help. When I saw that web development was one of my highest grade I was shocked and happy.  Career wise... I don’t really know exactly what I want to do. I would like to go and do something that involves media but I still don’t know if I want it for the long term yet. If I am doing it for the long term, I would like to go to graphic design or photography or website design.  Over the summer, I went to Disneyland Paris again. I only went because my little cousins wanted to go and I thought i...

Final Draft

This blog post has all the annotated blogs I researched. It is the final literature paper for this semester game project.  In case you missed my previous blog post, my game idea for this semester is to make a game for younger children in Primary School. Most likely going to be children from the age to 4 to 6. It's an interactive learning game. This game is about learning different subjects but in a fun and entertaining way. We got inspiration from Duolingo and Study Stack . The following annotated review will cover a wide variety of experiential learning that will focus on the experiencing children/students have with learning from school/home and social. Evan Ortlieb wrote about how experiential learning can have on students when learning in and out of the classroom. One of the main methods of learning is that we can learn from doing something, learning from our mistakes. Students who are interested in literacy and using technology and experiential learning should be a central...

MD2Final GDD

For the next few weeks, I would like to have most of the cartoon drawing for the game and that most of them are on the Adobe Animate with the game coded up. The last few days I have been looking at videos of how to get the game to go to one scene to another. When I couldn't get it to go one scene to another, I got it to go to one frame to another. The video GDD below and last week post talks about what we want for our Multimedia 2 game project. What we add to the GDD was how the game level will progressively get harder each time the player passes a level. We also add in the colour palette and the illustration we have for the game. We will have a group meeting and working together every Wednesday and Thursday. If we can't do that we have a group chat, most of our decisions were made through this. Game Flow Chart;
