  • WHY is a game a better way of understanding your topic than a quiz? The reason a game is better than a quiz is because it is fun and education

My Minigame

My mini game was kind of hard to make.  The codes can stop the whole thing if you don't get one right.  Then it was kind of easy to make after you get the hang of it.  Then the worst part was trying to make pizza go across the screen because it wouldn't work for awhile. The easiest part was making the carrot move.

My Topic!!!

My name is Corey.  The topic I decided to do is about World Hunger and World Poverty.  I think the website poverty.com will help me when researching for this project.  I also think theedgemalasia.com could also help me. Wikipedia also has a page on World Hunger .  I think the game Third-World Farmer will also help me because it is also somewhat simulates my idea.

Internet Saftey

Always be careful when getting on websites that are suspicious.  There are websites that can contain viruses or spam. This can crash or reset your computer and damage it.  It could render the computer useless.  Also never fill out information on a website that is not trust able.  also never respond to an email from a person that you don't know.  For more information go to this website: http://www.commonsense.com/powertotheparent/tvSpots.php?utm_source=&utm_campaign=&utm_medium=&utm_referer

Playing to Learn Testing

My favorite game when testing turned out to be Medical Mysteries.  This game made it interesting to prevent diseases.  It also taught me how to prevent diseases like bacteria and fungi.  It was definitley one of the most interesting computer games I've ever played.  I loved figuring out how to combat various diseases. It was so interesting with everything to do on that game.

1st Time Doing Globaloria

This is my first time using globaloria and it has been an amazing experience so far.  I consider it an honor to be chosen for this class. I find everything we do incredible. I never knew that codes or websites like viddler even existed.  I find this exciting and I am constasntly learning new things. It's an incredible thing to do and personally I believe this should be required as an option in school.  I also find wiki amazing too.
