Check out the team’s paper prototype. The students did a great job outlining the plan for their game. Unfortunately, I could not get the code to the video, but here is the link to their page!
Sherri’s blog about her favorite Beatle has a really cool caricature of Paul McCartney…cool, huh?
The Art Therapists have a great .swf file on their page describing their game. It looks really advanced alreday! Great job ladies!
The knowledge area that I will be using for my game is Social Issues with a focus on personal finance. The reason that I would like to create a game on this topic is because many young adults find themselves overwhelmed by financial decisions as they graduate high school and/or college. Often young adults accumulate debt, thus making it difficult for them to regain financial stability. Young adults often do not understand the concept of budgeting and are plagued by credit card debt and low credit scores, which reduce their chances of securing loans in the future for the purchase of a new car or home, etc. (via LauraGlobaloria2010: Personal Finance As A Social Issue)
