Digital Learning Day

Last year was more successful because a lot more people showed up. This year, we couldn't show as much since it was on short notice. The news should have showed us more because we are the ones who won last year and were leaders in starting it all. But what happened, happened and we can't change it. Hopefully next year will be better for my friends in the seventh grade because they do very good jobs too.

Make A Paper Prototype Part 2


This is our Video Log, otherwise known as Vlog. Here we have answered the questions together as a team.

Choose Team Game Topic

Our team worked together to attain the topic of the basics of WWII by going over the wars America has been in. We wanted to reach for a topic for a more mature audience so we went one grade level up (to 9th) and looked into World History. We settled with WWII as it was a war where many countries were involved which would, of course, come out with plenty of facts to use in a game. Thus, we went ahead and used it.

Teamwork

A few of my strengths would have to be designing, motion tweens, animations, coding, and working with layers. I can get along with people only if they can understand my personality. Although, if someone finds me annoying or something along those lines, then there's no way we can work in a team together.

Digital Learning Day

1.) What is Digital Learning Day and how has technology changed the way that you learn?

Digital Learning Day is a national day where students represent how we learn with technology and how it can help us in the present and future. Technology has changed how students everywhere learn by being more hands on. We can learn with websites that we're allowed to go on to and with educational games. Sites like Study Island, Reading Eggs, and others can help students develop their learning abilities with a more enjoyable way to learn. Students everywhere can learn a lot more with technology like it has taught my classmates and I.
