In this blog, I will talk about all the research I did since we got this assignment. Since my role was coding, I looked at different Adobe Animate tutorials so I can understand how to use it. I also looked at different kids games and take some inspiration from it. When I was looking at kids games I looked at educational games and other games from the age of 4-6 years old. I looked for games that were maths and games on the iPad, since we want a maths game and for iPad. These were the games I found Cool Maths Game  (PC) Fun Brain  (PC) Maths Is Fun  (PC) Toddler Learning Games (iPad) PlayKids (iPad) The games on the iPad were a mix of drag and drop and tap/click while the games on PC were tap/click. Drag and Drop; PlayKids (iPad) The tutorials I watched how to get it to go to one scene to another since I couldn't get it to do that I got it to go one frame to another. I watched different tutorials based on this and how to create buttons in Adobe A...

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;

For this week blog, we had to create a Game Design Document (GDD) for our game assignment. Instead of using DunDoc we were asked to use powerpoint to create our GDD. Each member was assigned to write about their chosen topic. I was assigned to researched and write about the technical, game architecture and user interface. So I drew up the game architecture on draw.io and I looked up the touch screen technology for the user interface because we want the game to be on the iPad since this is a kids game and kids nowadays are always on their phone or iPad. The Tiny Farm GDD video below talks about what game it will be and our goal for this group assignment. We also talk about the looks and feel of the game we would like and want. As a group, we all decided to just do one subject instead of 7, we thought maths would be the easiest and the best one. We figured doing it based on the theme farm will also be the easiest one and it will be something kids will enjoy more. We want to design...

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...

This literature review covers a wide variety of experiential learning, it will focus on the experiencing children/students has with learning. The following review of the literature confirms that these articles talk about the importance and what people can consider doing in the future. Evan Ortlieb  (2014), wrote about how experiential learning can have on students when learning in and out of the classroom. There's new experiential learning theory and it shows that there is a different paths learners take when learning. One of the main methods of learning is that we can learn from doing something. For decades, reading skills must be taught. Many were involves experiencing literature through hands-on and e-learning environments can promote reading. Students who are interested in literacy and using technology and experiential learning should be of central focus. François Fourcade and Nicolas Go  (2012), compared two different ways of experiential learning. This paper is fiv...

Just like last week blog post, I will be discussing another 5 article that relates to my Multimedia Project for this semester, These are the different Annotated Bibliography I looked at: Nelson, K, Plesa, D, Henseler S : Children’s Theory of Mind: An Experiential Interpretation. Human Development 1998;41:7-29.  doi.org This article is about the theory versions of children's theory of mind as discussed. There's data from adults' responses to this theory task. Many college students provide an explanation while others gave straight forward theoretical explanations. The young children's experimental is suggested that they rely on background experientially. The theory of human action is based on the mindset, it is a developmental product of narrative. The theoretical and methodological are the difference from each other, these two research is for studying the children's developing understanding of others' actions and to address the terms of the theory of mind. T...
