essay five project

To be honest I am very confuse on what I should talk about the essay five project. The idea and feed back that you gave me with all the things I mention was "games as advertisement". I don't know how to start or where to look the only thing on my mind is McDonald monopoly to be honest. I just need a guide on where to look for startes or if they have books and article because online I bearly find anything.

essay 5

I need help??? can any one help me about essay five and give me and idea. I don't know i do like playing certain video games. I hate fighting game because i always loose. I like more interaction games for example Guitar Hero is a fun game. What i do wonder is how does a person get a job just to play video games all day and to test it out?. The only idea I had was about the Monopoly game and how food chain has advertise games in order to buy the food to get the piece.

The trip was exciting. The 7 train was taking for ever really slow to get to Times Square, i arrived just in time and signed in. i saw Jeffrey he was great gave me memory when i get in the rat suit. i went to the grown level and play with the new Lego Batman and Robin game. then i walked to Game Stop and played Rock Band that was fun and interesting to play with it. the last 2 location where okay but not as fun and interesting as the first two. at the end of the trip my legs where tired.

What I learn in the cluster !

So far I love my cluster it feel like a little family, i find it difficult having different classes with different people and having to get to know one another is fun but i love the cluster better. what makes it better is the people that we have in class the classmates makes it more fun and interesting and is not like a click of new student in every class that i would have to introduce my self all over again.The challenging thing of the class is just the work is intense but we have time to finish it and we can help one another with posting out work on Black Board so a classmate can comment. The new challenge am waiting for is the final project, i think that would be more of a challenge because its more hands on then writing and am not used to it.

The Gee article

i Agree with many things that was written in the article. Technology is advancing in a way to help students to learn. Its difficult to grab a child attention to want them to learn if is not fun or interesting. A example is a toy that has has cartoon reading with a pen that has the cartoon characters voices reading it. i seen that game recently in the commercial and another game was a little bicycle n a child rides it and along the way solves math problems. I think if I had toys like this at home I would be doing a whole lot more learning . I started to play puzzle games and word games i honestly don't like it because i cant get it right away i do like trivia games because i feel more comfortable playing it. to let children's pick their curriculum it depend what age level we are letting student pick there classes reason why is because if they are two young they just might pick classes they already know and are comfortable and would not like to learn something new. the older children might be a little bit more level headed n they should be allowed to pick the classes they want to learn. When I was in High School i picked the law program that was the only class i could pick on my own and at first i hated the program after i was in it but after 3 weeks i started hitting the books and i loved it so it all depend what grade a person is in to pick the classes they would like.

Club Fair

The club fair was good i enjoyed it very much. compared to my old college it seemed that there was less club. The club member's in La Guardia seemed much more friendly then my last college. i joined the break dancing club it would be fun to try something new. the one i really wanted to join that i did not see was the sign language club i really wanted to sign up. it was cool spending more time with classmates looking at the club to join together.

Game

what do i think the word play means to interact with someone or an object to have fun while doing it. Game is one of the object that we use to play to use it i think it both falls under the same umbrella because it help one another. when those two words are used in the same sentence it works with one another. a game has its own little branches of leaves for example video games board game and game of tag or hiding go seek. when i see this game is exciting then i would like to play or other words interact with the game. simulation pays a big part of the game for example it helps people have more of imagination and fun with the games, some children's start imaginary they they are in a space ship and what not for example they work hand in hand with one another. it makes it more exciting to play.
