Saturday, July 30, 2005. Contributing to Communal Knowledge. As our entire class community was unable to attend the Digra conference, I was happy to relay my interpretation. I also had a good conversation with Wilson about the evolution of multimedia players. I have had many conversations with IPod users since this online conversation, they somehow feel the need for ten billion bytes of data in their pocket. Reflection on course concepts. Are more than can be contained in a few blog postings. Additionall...

Monday, May 30, 2005. I have to thank Dwight and Garrison for reminding me why I transferred my major away from philosophy. The philosophical jargon was waaaaay overused and the redundancy throughout the article was overwhelming. I haven't had a stronger urge to stop reading something since I was going over my tax forms. Perhaps Dwight and Garrison's ideas are just too ahead of their time for my comfort. I just can't seem to 'catch their drift' as easily as I catch other things. Things I've caught before.

Wednesday, June 22, 2005. I think I'm stealing a comment Conrad made in another class, but I think it's a valid question: Are the games Jim Gee demonstrated designed with the educational benefits he described, or are they made simply to $ell (by catering to base instincts like sex and violence) and advocates try to abstract educational propterties simply because they're zealous game advocates. Are these two points mutually exlusive? Is it immoral to use sex and violence as teaching strategies? Some of th...

EDUC 463 - Multimedia for Curriculum Design. Wednesday, June 08, 2005. Just a few days prior to the start of this course, I decided to try my hand at blogging. I had heard about it a couple of years ago and never really saw any use for it - for me, anyways. But, I decided to try it out. As you can see from it here -. It has not been a priority for me considering the last posting date that's shown. I've described how I would implement blogging in future LA classes. CONTRIBUTIONS TO COMMUNAL KNOWLEDGE.

EDUC 463 - Multimedia for Curriculum Design. Tuesday, June 21, 2005. This was quite a fascinating session that dealt with the study of infectious diseases. In essence, they created an online city, Whyville. Where users can join and interact with other members, to find out about infectious diseases, their outbreaks, outbreaks of Whypox (allowing users to connect it to natural diseases), etc. You can go to the mall to purchase face parts in order to upgrade your avatar (everyone starts with a bald face!
