GlObAlOrIa

This class has been . . . . . . ummmm about the most nerve racking, hard - working, and most fun class I've ever taken ( other than kindergarten). Every single project we've done has been filled with the enjoyment of accomplishing something new. Even in times where we had to come after school to hurry and finish because we had to present tghe next day. In the beginning noone knew what we were getting ourselves in to. It was really strange for the students like me who didn't choose to take this class, but we were thrown into it when they made our schedules.
The most important things we made were our blogs, wiki, and Chez's blog. They all determined what we did and how we did it. Chez has been a great teacher for this class even though at times she ws just as confused as us. We also had the Globaloria people. They were a lot of help when we needed them, and they always helped us learn how to correct our mistakes.
Most people would say that this class was a pushover class taken for seniors so they have an easy road to graduation. I know this because before this crazy ride started, that's what I said. looking back now, I can see that we did just as much work as any other class maybe even more. this class has given us all a set of skills that some people don't have untill they get out of college with a degree in video game design. I see all these comercials on t.v. saying they need video game designers, and I just laugh because they don't need to go to college to get that. All they need to do is spend a couple weeks in Globaloria class with Chez!!!
This class has been great. I would like to thank Chez and all the people at Globaloria for making this class possible. To my fellow Globalorians good luck. I hope you all have everything you want in life. I hope you've learned as much from this class as I have.

Games

Today's assignment was to go to two peoples game pages and look at them, then blog on them. I visited jp's game and destiny's game. JP's game completlely blew me away because he has action that should be in a professional game. His character moved and hit like a real game too. Destiny's game was good. It had a good moral to the game . It was about drop out rates in America and had multiple choice questions. JP just needs to finish his game and it will be perfecto! Des needs to put more action into her game. It's a bit boring. I will take the idea of moving characters back to my page, because it makes the game excited.JP's game doesn't really have an educational background, but it being so fun picks up for lost reason. Des's game has an educational background and it shows in the questions. Overall the games were pretty good and I can't wait to see what else the games will have to offer.
