Learning Challenge: H.E.A.R.T Video

For extra credits, I decided to watch a video about The Secret Powers of Time by Philip Zimbardo. The video talks about the different ways people experience time and how our perceptions of time are a fundamental part of how we think and how we act.

I already knew how some people still think about the past, they would either think of the good or bad or maybe both. I still think of the past when I see something that reminds me when I was a kid and if it was a good thing I would mention it to my friends and family but if it's a bad memories I would keep it to myself and ask why did I do that or why didn't I do that.

What I didn't know about the "La Liga" which is a political movement to cut Italy in half to have North Italy and South Italy cut it just below Tuscany. The people in the North say they do all the work and the people in the South are like children, they are lazy and wants to have three meals. They said that the North is much more future oriented and the South is either passed oriented or present hedonistic.

I want to stop think of the negative past memories and move into the positive side of the present and the future. To motivate myself, I am going to say "I will do this and that" and take action to it instead of saying "yeah I am going to do that later". Using will do, I am hoping that would be something I would take action to doing something that I said I will do.

Positive and Negative past mind;

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...

Game Vision Statement

Zoobe is what the name for the puzzle and adventure game I want to design.  It is a game where you are an animal, in a shape of a box and trying to escape from the zoo without getting caught but the humans or traps. The background story for this game is that one night the animal decided that they want to get away and out of the zoo and be free. Some nights after, one of the animal's gate was left unlock and left their "home" behind them. Since all the animals wanted to be free and actually go back to the jungle. The animal that escape went to get the key for the gate, with the help of other animals trying to get the zoo keeper drop the key to all the gates. To play this game, you are the animal who's gate was left unlock and have to get the key to open the other gates for the animal. The animal can't move by itself so you have to move them yourself without getting caught by the zookeeper or traps. To free the animal you either have to move them to the box that...

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...
