More Games!!!

This is an example of a 'Word Cloud', taken from everything talked about in my blog since it began. It adds greater prominance to words that appear more often throughout a text. From www.wordle.net, its a resource that could be used for a variety of different pursuits, for example word banks.


In our final ICT lesson of the course we experimented with more simple interactive games (http://www.kenttrustweb.org.uk/kentict/kentict_soft_simul.cfm) and looked at 'Myst', a game by Tim Ryland. This game could be an excellent resource for the classroom if used properly. By exploring the world of Myst the children would learn to use creative language in description of the environment and experiences within the game. Also the children would be forced to discuss and collaborate their ideas to form a better understanding and interpretation of the games simulation.
