About My Topic

My Topic is About... Historical-War


 This Issue Interest's Me Because.... To Me It Just Really Sounds Interesting


And I Want People Learn....  About The War  


Why Do You Think This Issue Needs To Be Addressed .... Well Originally I Thought The Topic Would Just Be Interesting 

March of the Penguins

1.) what challenges do the penguins have to overcome 
    the penguins are facing death due to cold wind and sub-zero            
    temperatures
2.) how does their habitat change their live-land each day
    for months at a time it will be freezing cold and then it will be warm but during the time penguin fathers and mother die
because of the weather
3.) what types of adaptations do the penguins need to survive brutal weather and  predators 
 they need to have thick warm coats for the cold chilly wind, huddle together to stay warm (witch everybody should know), and need to swim fast away from predators
4.)what is a negative impact that will effect the penguins mating process 
the i caps will be melting so probably the penguins will slip through  or slip and get eaten

Game review #1 [least effective]

The best game i liked was canvas rider even tough it wasn't 


very educational but it was very 


fun to play click on the link to play then it will show you my 


favorite track and the 


instructions  are at the bottom of the page but it didn't teach 


about a social issue   its just 


mainly for fun and it is to play  

Playing To Learn, Genre: Action

Games that don't work
.Zeitgeist
. Sigma Prime


action games are games that are usually fighting something or someone


but one of the games that taught me the most was: 
Mr. Nussbaum well technically its not a game but a website with  a wide variety of games covering all subject areas

the single story (blog post 1)

1.) What does it mean to have a 'single story' about a place or community?


It's when a person is judgemental about a place like east Austin and they think everyone there is in a gang or something


2.)Describe a single story you have heard told about your community. What is missing from that story? How could people learn more about that community?


I've heard a story about Mexican immigration from Mexico and a story that everyone in the south side of Chicago is a gang banger or is bad in general


3.)Describe a single story you have heard about another community. How did you learn that story? How could you find out more about that community? 


i heard a story that allot of people from Mexico try to immigrate to the u.s. and I've noticed when i go to expensive store allot of white people start to look at me weird like im crazy


4.)How could a game let players experience many stories about a place or community?


it could help them understand the view of the single-story and how it changes the view of people

this is my first blog of the 2011-2012 school year

                                                               crayon physics
I think that crayon physics is a great game that incorporates the law of physics into a fun game but the idea of the game being Incorporated into a global warming topic title idea might work depending weather or not it may be a strategy or puzzle game that witch the original  crayon physic's is based on but overall the idea of incorperating and changeing the original idea into a globalwarming genre would be rather difficult
