Rachel Rosenfelt


Yesterday a woman named Rachel Rosenfelt.She talked about the topics about our game and how to do the research.She was a visitor from New York.She came to talk to us about the game that we will be designing soon.My experiences were that there are more than just information about games but graphics and backgrounds.She talked about the different genres that there were to choose from like poverty and health.She talked mainly about these topics because these are the ones that effect us most.I now think about globaloria as not only a technology class but a way to learn information on the Web.Rachel Rosenfelt told us how to pick our topic that we want to make our game about.When she told us about the topic I decided to choose health and smoking because that fascinates me most.When she taught us about the genres and the topics and how some things relate to that certain topic also.When she told us about that I chose to change my work instead of just information but questions and answers with background and color patterns.That's what I learned yesterday at the visit of Rachel Rosenfelt.

What I learned

What I learned doing this project was how to expalin details and explain why and how I came up with this topic in this health topic.I am most excited about the graphics and color.Also the way the game wil be done with the falling ciggerettes with the girl and boy and another boy that pressures both kids into smoking and the boy does it but the girl thinks about her future and decides not to.When we start the real game I plan on doing the best that is can and also have the most detail and color out of all the games already made.When we do the information I want to find out how many people die and how many people barely servive the smoking.

Importance of following directions

It's important to listen and follow directions because She might be telling you something important that you may need to use during work.You may also need to listen because if she says that she may need to be absent because she has a meeting and you may need to do something that she told you. It's also important to be prepared for class in case you need to take notes to remember what she told you to do. When the teacher speaks it's important that you listen and pay attention to everything she said.Also need to pay attention because you may need to do something and then turn it in for a grade and you may not have known what to do and then you fail that paper because you didn't listen to a word she had said.When the teacher says to do something we better listen because we need to know what to do and then know how to do it.Also when things need to be done we need to listen for what new directions to follow.

What I learned This Week


I learned how to delete and name the animals and figures in the game that we will create.The way you do that is you box the object and then click modify then name it like carrotSymbol. We converted them into symbols.We also learned how to make it show up on the screen after we had copied and pasted it to the page and then made it onto the main page that we have on our Wiki pages.The other things we learned were how to delete the images on the page and then leaving only the carrot image on it all by itself.And then we updated our learning log about what we did on our mini game project.We also learned about the uploading a video and what code we need to actually upload the video and images.We learned about pages with codes and how to know which one you use for videos and pictures.I would like to learn about the parts of a computer and how they act differently in their own ways.I learned that action scripts are flashes that are similar to javascript. Action scripts are based on ECMAscript.I love learning new things,but sometimes it's hard to do all things at once and then you mess up and then none of it comes out the way that the teacher has it up on the projector
