UNIT QUESTION: CAN GAMES EDUCATE? Sunday, November 27, 2011
INTRODUCTION In these five weeks I am going to create a game for Lower school students which should be interesting for them and educational. To be more easy to make this game I have to go trough some steps which are: investigation, design, plan, create and evaluate. My clients are all lower school students. So I think my game should be easy understanding. Which have to be many pictures and less words. To satisfy my client I should also make my game funny, it’s kind of hard to make a game that include so many of things. So I’ll do carefully on my planning and creating steps.
