Space Alert | Board Game | BoardGameGeek - 0 views

  •  
    "It's a cooperative team survival game. Players become crew members of a small spaceship scanning dangerous sectors of galaxy. The missions last just 10 real-time minutes (hyperspace jump, sector scan, hyperspace jump back) and the only task the players have is to protect their ship. On 2 CDs (or Scenario cards if you don't have a CD player available) are ten minute long soundtracks that represent central computer announcements about the presence of various threats. These vary from space battleships and interceptors to different interstellar monsters and abominations, asteroids or even intruders and malfunctions on the spaceship. Players have to agree who will take care of which task and coordinate their actions (moving around the ship, firing weapons, distributing energy, using battlebots to deal with intruders, launching guided missiles, etc.) in real time to defend the ship. Only a well-working team can survive 10 minutes and make the jump back to safety."

Proof of Learning: Assessment in Serious Games - 2 views

  •  
    This article is from 2005, but there is some interesting material reviewed. Of course, the article mentions Jim Gee. One part that I found interesting was where Jim Brazell, a consulting analyst at the Digital Media Collaboratory, basically says that the only way someone can make an effective simulation game is to understanding thoroughly that which is being simulated. Thus, creation of games has the "potential to lead to new knowledge and new ways to do things through emergent behavior." This is the first time I've seen such a clear description of how game design can be used to build knowledge.

Harvest Pumpkin Muffins Recipe (all work and no play -- reward yourself) - 0 views

  •  
    You can use real pumpkin, get pie pumpkins (small ones) and cut into chunks to cook, can use microwave. It is time for these and a caution they mean baking POWDER not baking soda (baking soda leaves such an after taste the dogs even didn't want them) Trust the "Grasshopper98" on this!

    If all we do is study and work, we need to have a little FUN and FLOW in our own lives, the FIERO comes from seeing them come out of the oven!

Looking for FREE MMORPG or other GAMES? Here are 47 - 1 views

  •  
    Glad to see so many of you on the list. If you running out of game possibilities or want to expore more, here is a list of 47 FREE games available through STEAM, there is no cost to have an account, but whatever you do don't lose your STEAM password, it is very difficult to get it back... trust the "grasshopper98" on this. They have quite a few games I am looking at for possible use in my classroom. Some can be played within STEAM and others need a free-download to play, but may need strong graphics, ram memory and high-speed internet, others will work just fine within STEAM. No I haven't played them all. [Wink] So many games so little time.

Magic the Gathering - Real Time Play at FRCC - 0 views

  •  
    This is an older and younger player at FRCC on one of our Table Top Game Club, and this is three player, where he says "Kill a Jace" it is to kill a Planeswalker, not something taken lightly but what he is given in exchange basically makes him unbeatable. If you don't stage these plays, then it is just the real reality of chatter, play, nothing happening, or else.
