Typology assignment
The kids in the 4 seemed to come up with similar categories, i.e., adventure, war, music, sports, racing. One interesting and different category was "Create a Something." Games in this category were Strong Hold 2 and Age of Mythology. Other categories included family, anime, action, horror, physical, science fiction, killing, arcade fighting, strategy, superhero, fighting, and gang-related. Only one group had an "unknown" category.
The kids did well with dividing the games into categories. They got a little ansy by the time we went over the last group's categories. Not surprising, because of the repetition of categories.
Video closet and blog
A lot of the kids asked what "non-standard controllers" meant although they had been playing with them all morning. I guess we need to be sure and explain this term!
Blog question:
Non-standard controllers
Which was your favorite non-standard controller you played and with what game? Why?
First day of blog; a big effort to get some of the kids to write more than 1 or 2 sentences.
Video closet question
Questions: What do you think about the non-standard controllers? Which ones did you use and for what games? What makes them better or worse than standard controllers?
