Hi, I'm David - I'm the state director for the Globaloria program that Mr. Garvin and Ms. Tate are teaching. It's great to see that you're starting to add things to your wiki and to your blog page. I'm a HUGE Bob Marley fan. I love his music, too, and he was a great freedom fighter who was all about justice and peace.
Are you enjoying the class so far? It would be great to see you and your classmates blog about what you're learning regarding game design, Flash coding, and what research you are doing for your game topics. Reflecting on how the Globaloria class has opened your eyes to things about the world, about yourself, and about your goals would also be great to see in your blog posts.
There are lots of cool blogs that students from other schools have been writing and they are embedding a lot of cool media in to their blogs like I see you have started doing. Have you gotten a chance to cruise the Globaloria wiki and review other students' work? Go to www.globaloria.org/wv and click on other schools, go to their user galleries, and check out students' blogs to see what your peers at other schools are doing/writing about.
Are you planning on creating a video game? I hope you are. What would you like your game to be about? It will need to be about some educational or social issue topic. There's a lot of cool topics that you could choose to create your game about (civics, health issues, the environment, etc...). You could even create a video game about Bob Marley or a game where your character is Bob Marley, and goes around inspiring people and causing them to stop fighting, to work together in peace, etc.... You could even make it so as the player who plays your game levels up, a different Bob Marley song is unlocked and available for the player to listen to in your game.
I look forward to seeing your progress. Keep up the good work.
